Hi I have 3 young bantams only had them 3 weeks, 2 bantams use the perch bar to sleep at night, but one seems happy In the nest box. Is this ok. She doesn’t seem like it bothers her. Should I be worried?
 
It's a bad habit and should be broken, as nest boxes are meant for egg laying, and you don't want poop on your eggs. You didn't mention how young your birds were, but if they're not laying yet, you can cover up your nest boxes so the birds can't sleep in them. Physically moving the one bird that doesn't want to roost onto the roost should help her figure out that that's where she should be sleeping.
