@ChrisGrowingOrganic I was concerned after reading your comment, although our flock was already used to straw. So far, the older girls are laying in the boxes, and altho I've found an egg here and there from the new Ladies, they are moving to the box as well. Thanks for giving me the heads up on that!
@prou2bhispana There's no need to heat it. Here in NE USA although it gets very cold, their body heat and the coop itself keeps them warm. We also have chickens that are bred for colder areas.
with all that nice soft straw on the floor you might have a hard time keeping them eggs in the boxes. :)
