M...Just a tip, drawn from our chicken experience... Might not want to give them nest box access until they're close to laying age. Otherwise, they may learn to sleep (and thus poop everywhere) in the boxes. That's what our ladies did, in any case. Poopy eggs are no fun.<br /><br />Your chickens sure are cute! :)Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02769150016495656772noreply@blogger.com
