I heard about putting golf balls in the laying nests so they'd get the idea to start laying there. And, that has worked. We're getting eggs from 2 of the nests so far. They are using all of them for bedding. You can tell by the way the hay is matted down that they are using the nests. But, they just ain't laying real good yet. Our rooster is doing good with the hens. He's been feeling his oats and has been taking care of his business. So, we're hoping the egg laying performance of the hens increases.
