Stoat killed hens asleep in the Eglu

[mullethunter]

The cat box that my Pekins were using as their sleeping quarters now has the front door shut permanently because it was being used as a nest box (which I don't want because it's more difficult to get eggs out of than the Eglu). However the little girls still use it as a flat surface to sit on up out of the way of the a Wyandottes. It's a bit big though so I want to change it for something smaller. I was looking at those small folding plastic stools, but not sure they would be heavy enough and slightly worried they might fold and trap a chicken somehow!

 

Does anyone have anything they use or any ideas?

 

Thank you all

What about looking in Ikea? We have a few of their wooden folding chairs and they're quite sturdy (the hens don't use them though!)

I did have a folding step they are reasonably sturdy, mine broke, but then I am slightly heavier than my chickens lol. I have a small caravan step I sit on (and chickens!) a toddler step would work just as well.
