Two (silkie and EE) of my three chickens prefer to sleep in the nesting boxes. The other one sleeps on the poop board (my silkies don't roost). Is it OK if they sleep in the nesting box? The silkie that sleeps in the nesting box is still laying just fine and the EE is too young to lay (at least that is what I am rationalizing to myself for not having any eggs from her yet). Is this even a big deal or something to be concerned about? It's just a pain to constantly have to clean both of my nesting boxes every morning so my eggs stay clean. My silkies also lay at all times of the day, not just before noon or whatever. Input and opinions are welcome!!!
Thanks!
