Nest boxes

[brains]

I finished my coop and run and have 4 silkies about 3-4 months old. My question is should I open the 2 nest boxes that I have even though they are not ready to lay? The boxes have small doors that are shut now but when open are 12x12 boxes that hang outside the coop. Any suggestions would be helpful

Although they are not ready to lay open the boxes and introduce them i'd even go so far as to put some easter eggs in there chickens love to have anything that another member of the flock has!

I would open them to get them used to where they will be laying.
