well my newish laying hen for about 2 weeks, laid a egg in the run today still need to get that she needs to go in the shed, we have changed them to a bigger shed, from the coop, so nest box in shed now.

she is a rir about 28 weeks, now today had a egg in run the other chickens go tto it before i could

just now as i was cleaning run up a bit she laid another, but no shell, and no white, but a perfect round yolk why she done this, is it all settling down to laying?

how can i get her to lay in the box?

 

im giving them grit in a tub available all times

limestone and adding calcium to water,

any ideas

Put some fake/rubber eggs or gold balls in the nest box.

what do you used as a nest box and what is in the nest box. Mine lay in their own prefered places. One in a cardboard box on it's side filled with straw in the run, the other in a cat litter tray filled with straw in the shed, and the third was laying in the unused chicken coop, but now lays in the old rabbit hutch - again I've put straw in it.
