I have 24 hens and one rooster. They have a large run and spacious coop. 17 of the hens are 2-3 months older than the newest six. The older ones have always been in the run. The six were 4 months old when I got them and were free range. All are laying now but 2 of them prefer to lay anywhere but a nesting box. I have six boxes that all have bedding in them. How do I convince these two to get with the program and use the boxes?
I have found their eggs on the floor of the coop, in the run, and even in the dust bath I provide for them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
