how to entice henrietta back to nesting box???
« on: July 28, 2009, 19:32 »
Hi,

My broody has started laying again but she is doing it in the garden not her nesting box. She may have been additionally put off as Doris went broody and has been on some eggs in the favoured nesting box. She's now been moved to the broody but how do i get henrietta to lay where she used to!
Is this a hopeless quest? At least she is consistently laying in the same place in the garden?

thanks

michelle

I have one hen that goes under the tarpaulin on our lowloader trailer to lay and I can't get her to lay anywhere else  :D
Staffies are softer than you think.
