tip for you sparrow , if the birds are not laying take the nest boxes out and you can give them a scrub put them away under cover and the hens will have to roost then

the question to consider is the perch, is it higher than the nest box, it should be. at least as high as a standing bird, the next is have they room to reach the perch. the nest box should be a few inches above ground level preferbaly in a the dark with room to stand to lay the egg. my last nest box was made so tha the egg rolled out of sight as some of the girls got a taste for them.
