Easy Nest Box Build
The Spring Chickens are large enough to blind with the rest of the flock, and the coups need some improvements. We need to put more nesting boxes in the coups. Currently we have just two official laying boxes and a collection of milk crates that seems to work well enough, but he chickens who have been laying eggs have slowed down their production. We suspect that the few broody hens we have are monopolizing the nest and preventing others from laying. We will continue working on the broody hens, but we also want to add more nesting boxes to allow others access.
We also want boxes that tend to face the hens away from us if they are on the nest. If we lay in some simple boxes just inside the door the chickens will then be faced into the coop. This allows us to reach under from behind and scoop out any eggs they are sitting on, without the chance of being pecked at. So with some scrap wood we have in the barn, and some simple hardware we are going to build a set of removable boxes to cover the doors for the coups.
