Here's another chicken question: The hens who do roost (I still have 3-4 who pigpile into the nest box at night) tend to only roost at the far end, nearest to the chicken door Although it's hard to get an inside photo, these are taken from just outside the human door looking in. The screened opening on the left is closed at night. Directly across from that is a double-paned window that does not have a covering on it (second photo). I'm wondering if the window is discouraging roosting on that side, or if it is just a cuddle-issue -- the far end has both the main roost and a shorter one above it. The nest box is also at that end, so all the chickens end up pretty close together at night. I, of course, envisioned walking by in the evening and looking in at a neat row of chickens on the lower roost, but that has never happened.
