The coop and run were one of the features that attracted us to buy. Then the roof started to fall apart. Due to a few varmint issues now solved (knock on wood) the older hens tend to roost on a support beam near the roof across the width of the coop.
The original roosts are below that and run the length of the coop. I got a cackle mini surprise box in June and have moved them into the coop, and think I need more roost space.
Many of the little do not try to roost and pile in one corner. I try and pick them up and place the on the roost, sometimes they stay, sometimes not. I am also trying ro break them of trying to sleep in nesting boxes.
Other than building a bigger coop, and suggestions?
