Still waiting for first egg

[Acre4Me]

Soon!! You’ll see eggs soon!! But, are they checking out the nest boxes? Showing interest? Do you have fake eggs in there to show them it’s a safe place to lay?

When we moved them out to the big coop, we kept them in there for 3-4 days. They BEG to get outside to free range. I've been trying to keep them in there until mid-morning in hopes of coaxing them to lay. Haven't found any eggs in the yard yet either. THE WAIT IS KILLING ME

It's HARD to wait... and wait..and wait.
It'll be any day now, closer than it's ever been.

What all and how exactly are you feeding?
When were they moved to new coop(pics?)...and chicks were added...stressful.
Also....
Where in this world are you located?
Climate, and time of year, is almost always a factor.
Please add your general geographical location to your profile.
It's easy to do, and then it's always there!

WE GOT AN EGG TODAY!!! When I got back from my run all the nesting boxes were scratched out and one of the ceramic eggs was kicked out. I put the sex link in there & she scratched around a few. I came inside for a work call & she ended up laying under some corrugated sheets kind of up against the shed...so that will need some training but ITS FINALLY HERE! Thanks all!!!
