Thanks, Aliza! It's a great idea -- here's hoping the ladies will figure it out before they start laying!

What a cutie! Caroline, try putting a few golf balls in a nesting area near where the chickens roost. Maybe a small wooden box lined with hay. I'm only a newbie chicken owner but when we wanted our chickens to start going in the nesting box that's the trick we used.

My hens should be laying in the next week and we're trying to get them to nest in a suitable location - not all over the lawn! How'd you do it? Hope Butterscotch has some great eggs! What variety is she?
