Here's our 2 eggs we got tonight. One in the box and one in the middle of the run. Will the chicken that laid it in the run lay in the box or will she keeo laying in the run? And they are pretty big and hard shells also!

I don't have an answer for you. I am just introducing 3 young chickens to my 4 year old hen and she has taken to laying out in the dirt rather than the coop. The young ones seem to stay in the coop near the nesting box is. I hope the hen starts laying again in the nesting boxes.
 
I placed a plastic egg as you offered so I will see if that makes a difference. If it doesn't work I think I will try moving her own egg into the nesting box. Thanks!
