Evening all!

I've had my 3 ex batts 3 weeks now, and were doing well  We have had 1 egg a day since Sunday and 2 out of them are on the perch when i go down to put them to bed at night.

The one, im slightly worried about - shes the one that doesnt go onto the perch to roost and chooses to sleep in the nest box instead. - this wouldnt worry me as at least shes in the house but two nights out of the last 3 i have gone down to put them to bed to find her missing and curled up in a grassy patch under the fence...

Should i be worried? is there anything i should do?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks

She just sounds like a stubborn chicken, I used to have about 15 leghorns that used to roost in a tree on a night time, my daughter used to love going and shaking it to get them down, then they used to go into the house to sleep, this went on for about two weeks then we got fed up and built another enclosure with no tree, problem solved.
