We have recently moved house and the girls didn't really like the move. They have the same coop and a bigger run. They have also just started molting. Now they are not laying they have been sleeping in the nest boxes and pooping in there. All three try to get into one box. Should I remove the nest boxes for a while to encourage them back to the roost?
Just leave them... They are probably just trying to stay warm through their molt... I would just clean out the nesting box... You could, however, move them, but that would be bad for the hens.. yet another change they must get used to...
