To get free range bird to use nests at point of lay it is often necessary to confine them to coop and run around POL,
to 'train' them to use the nests and make it become a habit. I'm assuming you are free ranging your birds WesleyBeal, forgive if I am incorrect.
When dloading weather history, be sure of what station the data comes from.
I made the mistake of using the wrong station and gathering inaccurate data.
Once I found a closer station and checked it against my reading here for awhile, then I gathered the historical temps.
Just some thoughts...ignore them if they don't apply.
