I have 8 Buff Orpingtons who have about finished their first molt. We have NEVER had issues with any of them pooping in the laying boxes. Now all of the sudden, today there is poop in the boxes. I don't understand. Why now? I mentioned the molting in case they sometimes do strange things when molting.
 
Are they spending excess time in the boxes?
I don't know. I say that, because we moved and they are temporarily in a shed attached to my building. I have not got my pen and henhouse put back together yet. They have been there since July, and there has been ZERO issues with the boxes except for what is on their feet. This is actually whole chicken turds. It has a dirt floor and plenty if ventilation. I was just surprised by the sudden poop in the boxes.
