Water in the nesting box?

[Berkeleymom]

My chickens are just now laying eggs and it appears they are using their nesting boxes. The eggs are looking good and getting bigger each day. One thing I’ve been noticing is what appears to be wetness in the nesting boxes. There is no evidence that there were deformed eggs laid, since I don’t see anything but dampness in the box. I replaced all of the nesting box materials and added more herbs, and I again found the wetness in the box. What could that be?

Can you post pictures of your nest boxes?

Yes, pictures please.

Has it been raining? Some nestbox designs are notorious for leaking.
