Chili Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 My lovely light sussex hen ( with fantastic looking knickers ) flatly refuses to use the nest box. So far she has laid in the run, on the lawn and even managed to balance one on the garden wall! I can't shut her in the nest box when it's time to lay as it's a bit random and I'm not always there. My 3 other hens have got the hang of it and always use the nest box. Any help greatly received Chili xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatsCube Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 On a wall! that is impressive! try popping an egg or two in the nest box so she gets the hint! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 my new ex bat girls seemed to have got the hang of it until I came home yesterday to find an egg in the run being kicked around like a foot ball!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
