Setting up your nesting boxes correctly makes all the difference! Here’s how: 1. Size Matters - Each box should be at least 12x12 inches to give your hens a cozy, private space to lay. Too small? They’ll avoid it. Too big? Multiple hens might pile in, leading to broken eggs. 2. Keep It Private & Dark - Hens prefer quiet, low-light areas for laying. Position nesting boxes in a calm part of the coop, away from heavy foot traffic and bright light. 3. Use Soft Bedding - Straw, pine shavings, or nest
