Make Sure Your Chickens Lay Their Eggs In One Place!
Do your hens lay their eggs in hay bales, on the ground, in tall grass -- everywhere but the nest boxes? Sometimes chickens can be very stubborn about this habit.
Train them with a "nest egg." When your chickens get ready to start laying, placing the fake egg in a nest box will give them the idea that the boxes are "the place" to lay their eggs, too.
