They are still huddling in the corner of the coop at night to sleep. I tried tonight to put them on the roost that didn't work. I started cleaning the coop today got to hot so I stopped leaving their corner were they all sleep bare floor and they managed to kick enough bedding back into the corner to sleep. They can all reach the roost. I can't figure this out anyone got any ideas?
Could it be a ventilation issue? Is it warmer inside than outside? They would probably move toward the spot with a little breeze and the coolest. Is your perch wide enough? They often do better on someething like the flat side of a 2x4 or fat brandh than a broomstick type roost.
If they are young, as in still not laying, it may be they just need to grow up a little more before they learn.
If you're sure it is cofortable for them, you can try ptting him on the roost at dusk for a week or so.
Really, there is no harm in their sleeping on the floor.
