Relocating troubles

[PaulaLucas]

Thanks for all of the replies. I took the chairs off the front porch and used a spray bottle. Now two of them go home but the other two wait outside of the coop. Have to shoo them in. The rooster gives me the most trouble dancing around and running around the coop.

Treats? I find mealworms a great motivator for getting my chooks where I want them.

Is the new coop darker inside than the old one?
Maybe they are having trouble seeing the roosts.

Just guessing here, maybe a nite light for a short time before roosting time that goes off an hour later. Pictures of the old and new coop might help us.
