hi guys! i have 4 girls who are laying (2 just started laying a couple weeks ago). all 4 of them want the SAME nest, and i know there's not a lot i can do about that. and i wouldn't mind if they all wanted the same one....IF.....it didn't make them extremely LOUD!!! today i had 3 chickens who were doing the egg song cuz there was a girl using the favorite nest and the other 3 were MAD!! even my sweet quiet EE was egg-songin-it! and i live in town and i do NOT want neighbors to complain. hubby is actually getting ready to build me a new coop, but it probably won't be done or a month or so....but in the mean time i was wondering if i should take away the favorite box in hopes of stopping all this LOUD fighting over the same "toy"?
 
I wouldn't recommend it. Taking it away might make them even louder because they want it. And they want it NOW.
