Setup Tips
Getting the most out of your nesting box
Choose a stable, level spot
Use the adjustable legs to level the box on uneven coop floors or ground before securing it in place.
Start with a gentle floor slope
Begin with a shallow slope on the roll-out floor, then increase it gradually once your hens are used to the box.
Introduce hens gradually
Give your flock time to explore and get comfortable with the new nesting box, especially if you're switching from a different setup.
Clean the roll-out tray regularly
Regular cleaning keeps the roll-out system working smoothly and keeps eggs cleaner.
More detailed guides are on the way in our Homestead Journal.
