Hatching
Hi friends! I’m getting chickens soon and working on reconfiguring my coop. My husband made me some amazing nest boxes to replace the ones that were there when we bought our house. However, now I’m reading that the roosting bars are supposed to go above the nest boxes? Any particular reason for this? The roosting bars that are currently in the coop are lower down. Should my roosting bars be higher up, or my nest box lower down to the coop floor? Any ideas? The bottom of the nest box is currently 18” off the ground.
