Insert Tray with cover for Rollaway Nest Box

I’ve been using this for about a week now to try to solve my egg eating chicken problem. It doesn’t fit into my existing nest box attached to the side of the hen house, but I wasn’t expecting it to and knew there would be room for it just on the floor of the coop. Only thing I hadn’t quite realised was that it doesn’t have a built-in slope to the tray. For the eggs to roll away you have to rig up something yourself so that it sits at an angle. The girls have had mixed responses to it - one or two are fine and when it works it’s great, the egg eater can’t access her eggs to peck them 🎉 But one or two don’t like it and are laying on the ground or just on the floor of the coop and those eggs still tend to get eaten. If you put nesting material in the tray to help them then the eggs don’t roll away and just get eaten anyway. So overall I would say I hope this will be a success in the long term but it is a work in progress at the moment!

Good and sturdy, the hens like roosting in it but not laying in it yet!

The quality is good, but I bought two of these, hoping I could squeeze them into the nest box of my Flyte so fancy Granary chicken house because I have a hen that's turned cannibal. Sadly, they don't fit, but I think I can still use the base, modified, then make a lift-up flap across the centre of the nest box to conceal the eggs..

Very robust and well made, good value as well

Great, thank you
