New coop

[Kevintaylor]

My birds have been in their old coop for about 2 years. What’s the best way to make sure they use their new coop

First and foremost...! I hope you enjoy this site as much as the rest of us do! I have learned SOOO much from this site, and I hope you do too! Secondly, I always lock them up in there coop for 1-2 weeks ensuring that they don't get out! This way they get used to their new coop ( and coming back at night if they're free ranged)

Hope this helps!

Is their old coop gone? Lock them in the new coop for a few days and they will get used to that being their home.

Welcome to BYC!
Might take more than a few days.
Do you free range of have a run?

Their old coop is still In use for about another week. Then I will move them. And I normally let them few range in the eves when I get home from work
