Nesting box curtains

[JaclynSunnyvale]

I’ve got some egg eaters and will be adding curtains to the nesting boxes. Looking for recommendations for fabric and method of hanging the curtains. Pictures welcomed. Thank you!

Curtains are not going to stop egg eating.

What are you feeding the flock? How much protein? Do you ever feed meat protein?
Do you have enough space and things to do in the space for your flock? Can you post pictures?

Collecting eggs frequently will help if you are able to do that.

Alternatively, you can put a bunch of fake eggs in with the real eggs to help deter egg eating as the offender will not be rewarded when pecking a fake egg. You can also try blowing out the contents of several eggs and filling them with mustard mixed with cinnamon and orange peel. Blend/puree it enough to get it to flow into the blown out egg shells then seal the openings of the egg shells with wax to keep them from off gassing their scents as you don't want to discourage egg laying in the nests.

If all else fails, you can switch to roll away nest boxes.
