Chickens have nesting boxes now.
Painting the hutch Sunday Morning while the children were inside playing with the birds, was a nice time. The kids call the girls by name and I am teaching them to act with gentle force and to remember they are the boss, but to be so kindly.
The girls were shut out of the upstairs so I could paint all exposed surfaces. I finally got the paint and supplies off the patio.
Beloved made a framework that can be pulled out of the cleats easily for cleaning. We have to do some redesign. After some late night research we need to have the boxes to small. They need to be 12 inch by 12 inch. We can easily fix that, but will run short of room for the girls. Perhaps we can do some on the other side.

Eventually the girls will give up the eggs.
I found Angel (the white one) was in the first box by the ladder.
