I don’t know if this is normal behaviour, but our girls have started to scatter the nesting material all around their house, which forces us to replace it each day. For the first week of getting our two new hens, they were happy with our first hen, and each morning the house (Go Up) was tidy and the straw was in the nesting area. The last two days have been chaos, with nothing much in the nesting area, and everything scattered around the rest of the house.
OK, we are first-timers, and this is new to us, but does anyone else find this? Is there any way to retain the bedding in the nest site? Would a cardboard box help?
