Roosting on the nest boxes

[kateseidel]

They are only 10 weeks old, so we have a ways to go. But the hands-down, number 1 roosting spot in the coop is on top of the nest boxes (they do not have a slant board top). Are they going to move over to the roosts at some point or should I relocate the nest boxes before it's too late?

try moving the roost down a bit and maybe puting them on it at night. they'll get the hang of it soon!

Imo they will just roost on it again in the new location. Unless you put it so close to the ceiling that they can't fit. Unfortunately you may just have to put a slant top on it.
