Hi all, I’m Rick from south western Missouri. Our family purchased 5 barred rock pullits back in early February and they are just starting to lay (little eggs so far). We bought 6 red sex link pullits in the middle of February and they are about feathered out now.
We have one barred rock who is not laying eggs in the nesting boxes and has dropped one while my oldest daughter was holding her and her second one while she was drinking from the water’er. Is there a way to train them to lay their eggs in a nesting box? Two or three of the other rocks are all laying in nesting boxes but the one won’t or hasn’t yet and I’m afraid she maybe laying them in the edge of woods where we won’t locate them. They are free range.

We are glad you joined our flock!
