Ok. So, I had my five chicks set up in a galvanized steel tub but then they were trying to climb on top of each other and escape. And they were all pecking at the sides of the tub and I was afraid they were going to smash their faces! So, I moved them to a cardboard box with high sides and now they are pecking at that!!! What the heck?? Can they get out of a box by pecking the sides? Are they trying to tell me they hate me and want to move out?

I am so flipping scared I'm going to kill them because I clearly know zero percent of anything about chickens... Besides they are delicious with buffalo sauce.

Lord, help me.

I agree with Heather here, they are probably just curious. They huddle together when they're cold and they spread out to the sides when it's too hot. Sounds like you're taking good care of them and being on top of things. Good job.

These boxes have pro's and con's
great if you need to utilize space and keep all nest contained...I never get straw kicked out of these...

big con....if you have a broody, there's no way to get in there except head on...take my word for it...extremely dangerous..

Yeah, I have the metal 10 hole nests with square openings. I have many peck marks in the back of my hand, lol.
