Opinion on nesting boxes

[Renee572]

Nope... looks like a cat litter box, the ones with the top which I did think about using but went for repurposing an old dresser we got for free from someone.

Well I haven't gotten around to fixing the nest boxes but my BA has now laid 5 eggs in 7 days and none have been in the boxes! :/ I am definitely gonna work on the boxes tomorrow and see if I can get her to like them before the other 4 start taking after her lead when they start!

Question, has anyone used this type of nesting box?

Interesting box desing, I might have fire up my vacuum forming table and make a few like that to try out...

Did you try putting one of the totes with straw in the place sh'es been laying?

A art unfortunately it won't fit in that spot but she hasn't even uses that same spot for the past 3 eggs! :/

That is why I am asking if anyone has tried one. I have never seen anything like it!
