Good Morning. Its been years since I've had chickens and I just got 4 two days ago. Two are already laying and the other two not yet. This is my concern. Since I got them I've had NO eggs. Both current layers have been inside the coop but have stayed outside the coop constantly. Even at night they roost outside rather than going inside. The two young ones that are not laying seem to want to be inside the coop all the time. Is this normal? Are they just stressed about moving? They also flew right over the fence the day we got them so I clipped one wing and that didn't work so I clipped both wings. That has worked so far but I'm concerned about them not laying eggs and the two that are staying outside. It rained last night and they stayed on the roost in the rain.
