Nesting box advice

[neo71665]

Chickens by nature lay on the ground. Raising nest boxes is simple for human convenience.

See she's intentionally being naughty lol

I have 1 bird that will squawk at any bird in the nest she wants, if they don't move she walks around the run squawking and will just drop her egg wherever, lol, they can be strange critters

I'm sure she'll get used the them on the ground next day or 2. I have to give her a hard time. Lol

Okay now that I'm less sick I have made some changes. Here's hoping I get both problems solved. The little lady in the pics has been waiting to lay for hours. But I had a new one lay before I ripped out the nesting boxes that were on the platform.

Good job! MUCH better. Please let us know how the birds like their new arrangements.
