This is my 1st year raising chickens and so far it has been awesome!!! But over the last few weeks one of my chickens won’t roost in the coop at night and roosts in a nearby tree, so I have to climb the tree and put him in the coop. it’s a pain but it wasn’t that bad till the last few days there have been 2 chickens in the tree and then tonight there were 3. Is there something I can do to discourage them from roosting there? Is there something wrong with my coop? The only thing I can think of is we just realized on of our chicks is a rooster, could that be the reason they don’t want to go into the coop?
