Nesting Boxes

[BR75]

I have a galvanized nesting box that was given to me by my grandparents, but I am not sure if it will work or not. All the dimensions seem to fit everything I have read except for the width, which is 10 inches per nest box. Will this work for barred rocks?

It should work just fine....

 

[Judy]

Sure.

Thanks for the replies and the welcome! Everything I read said 12" wide would be ideal, so I wanted to ask some more experienced individuals to get their thoughts. Again, thank you.

I have always used the standard 10 or 12 hole nesting boxes and the work very well! Every once and a while I will catch my 10Lb Buff rooster in the highest one! It is actually very funny! My RIR, Buffs and Barred Rocks use these with no problem I hope this helps BR75!
