Chicken nest boxes?

I would build one...it's pretty easy. I don't remember ever seeing them at Stauffer's....try going to Southern States...they probably won't have it in stock, but you can look in their huge catalog and order something.

Building your own is a good way to go.

Here's an eggcellent website for chickens. I've ordered many things from here and have always been happy. Here's their rear rollout nests...

chickens? a few months old? The rooster is a RI Red I think and the hen has puffy checks. Not sure of breed. If ya want them I can give them to ya after the 20th because there going to use for our nursing home visit. After that I will get in touch with ya if still interested.
