Hello,
I've done a lot of reading and tried it all... now I'm stuck.
We've got 6 young pullets, one is POL. And has been a good girl laying an egg everyday now for 2-3 weeks. But Victoria will never lay in the nesting box. Instead she chooses the floor in the shavings.
It's nice purpose built nest box. Its raised, but not as high as the perches and its got fresh bedding.
There's an access perch too.
But she insists on laying in the floor.
Next we put flower pots and buckets in her various spots. And bugger me, she lay an egg on top of an upturned flower pot!
Any other suggestions, almost ready to take out all the flooring for a wee while.
