Anybody tried wrapping their roost bars in rope?

[wavid]

I installed a couple of roosting bars in our coop a couple weeks ago. One I wrapped with rope, and the other I left bare. So far, the girls have completely ignored the new roosting bars. So I don't know which they prefer. Any tips on how to get the chickens to roost where you want them to roost would be greatly appreciated (point me to a thread?)! Haha!!

Video below shows how I did it.

Hi there, you might need to put the girls on the roosts at dusk - night for them to get the hang of them
