I need some help modifying my nesting boxes to encourage my ladies to use them. They are currently laying in a little nest they made under their stairs.
The current nesting boxes are not ideal, especially in the current very cold winter conditions. They are exterior to the coop and have a top hinge. The coop is insulated but the nesting boxes are not. On a very wet day, some leaking can occur. We tried adding some weatherstripping but it didn't really work.
Is there something I can build inside the boxes to keep them warmer and drier? Thank you!
