The hens seemed to be having trouble understanding where they were supposed to be laying. They kept kicking all the pine shavings out of the nest box too. I decided to try filling the nest boxes with straw and that seems to have done the trick. That bright blue one is one of the wooden Easter eggs that we are using to give them the right idea.
On Saturday while hubby was out mowing the lawn he tried to move the chicken coop and one of the chickens, Sally, would not come out. He looked in and saw she was in the nesting box. He came back after a few minutes and saw her singing about what a beautiful egg she had lain. Here is the video of that cool moment:
