Ok, I followed directions and many different bits of advice and online articles when I built my chicken coop. Ultimately, I discovered that their nests are off the ground, and somewhat in the dark... Some pics I see of the hen houses look like they are in full darkness... BUT I thought hens only lay in the daylight ???
So I am just a bit confused... is it better to have their nest in the dark or...? Since I got my ladies (2) about 2 weeks ago, the eggs have increased so maybe I am doing something right... Any input would be helpful!!!!
