Ok,
Am new to world of chickens, house we moved into had house and run all set up, so we cleaned it all up and now have had chickens for three weeks
I love them they are brill!
Now they have just started to lay (all little small ones) and they have pecked at two egss. I think they were the first that they had laid so I will allow them that as I would guess it was pretty surprising their first time!
BUT......
They aren't laying in their boxes? Are laying in the house, but both have appeared in one corner.
I have the boxes and floor of house covered with woodshavings, the farmer who sold me them also has this set up, is there anything I can do to get them to use the boxes?
Anything I am doing wrong? or that I can do better?
