Nestboxes
The perfect solution to stop your chooks eating your precious eggs!
Secure & Durable Nest Boxes in Australia For Hens and Eggs
Do you sometimes wonder why your hens aren't laying eggs? The truth is they may have laid their eggs already, only you can't find them. For those who are new to chicken keeping, you may not know that hens tend to lay their eggs where they feel they’ll be safe and secure, and these are often in secretive, hard-to-find spots.
With chicken nesting boxes, collecting eggs is made more efficient. Not only that, but rollaway nests also keep your eggs safe from being eaten by chooks! We offer the best range of nest boxes in Australia that provide a secure, welcoming and tranquil nesting site for your hens.
How Many Nest Boxes Do I Need?
Nesting boxes should only be a place for hens to lay eggs, not a place for them to sleep. As such, chickens typically take turns sitting, so it is not a 1:1 ratio.
The recommended number is a ratio of one chicken nesting box for every three or four hens. However, keepers with large flocks sometimes use one nest per six or eight birds.
Best Locations for Chicken Nesting Boxes
Four things make a nest box inviting to a hen: quiet, safe, dark, and private. It is imperative that you meet these four requirements to encourage hens to lay eggs in the box, as these are their preferred nesting and laying conditions. Chicken keepers typically install them into the low, dark parts of the coop, where there is a good sense of security, and is generally away from flock activity.
