My newly laying hen went into the nesting boxes to make nests, but she eventually chose the roosting floor! Could I please have some input on how to make the nesting boxes more inviting?
Roosting floor has hemp and sugarcane mulch. Nesting boxes have hemp and pine shavings, with a fake blue egg in it.
Should I remove the wood piece (circled green) that I placed to give a bit of lip to the boxes?
Or remove the internal partition (circled purple) as she seemed to like more space?
She was also throwing the sugarcane mulch on her back.. should I add it to the nesting boxes? I read it encouraged mites though.
