Regarding your chickens. Encouraging a chicken to lay eggs where you want vs where they want is pretty challenging. From the brief look at the situation, three suggestions, 1. Put same bedding material in nesting box as what is on the floor. I could not tell for sure but it looked like the nesting boxes were a little shy of bedding compared to the floor. 2. When you see eggs on the floor move them to a nesting box and in the nesting boxes add some fake eggs (wooden or if you dont have fake eggs use a ball that is close to the eggs diameter - like a golf ball). you want the chickens that have not laid their eggs yet to see the eggs in the nesting boxes. They will go where other eggs are. 3. Find the chicken that is first laying eggs on the floor and put that one in the stew pot. It is a devient and should be replaced. Hope this helps! One fellow Tennessee resident to another!
Great recommendations! I’m adding one, for any accidental rooster acquisitions, raise until big enough to put in the stewpot and turn them into chicken pot pie or chicken and dumplings. 😉
Nathan, thanks for conjuring up memories from my childhood.
I was raised up around my grandma on my mom's side. My mom and dad built a house on an acre lot that was deeded to them by my grandparents. I was at my grandma's house every day.
Grandma raised chickens. She would order chicks at the local feed store and the chicks would be delivered by the mail carrier each year until around 1957 when the USPS stopped offering that service. After that she had to drive back to the feed store to get her chicks when they came in.
My grandpa built the chicken house and the nesting boxes were about 4 feet off of the floor along one wall of the hen house and were made of sawmill lumber. There was a 1 X 6 board that ran across in front of the boxes that provided a "landing platform" for when the hens wanted to launch from the floor to go to nest. I see your boxes don't have any kind of ledge or landing spot for the girls to use and they may have just got tired of having to jump straight for a nest box. Maybe if you fix them some kind of a landing platform board they might get their interest back for the boxes you have. I bet you can find somebody nearby with a sawmill who would be glad to help you out. 😁
I bet you're right but remember, he's in Tennessee, not a lot of sawmills around that area.. LOL..
With all the, so called, problems related to weather, the best way to reduce seat time mowing, is to get rid of the grass all together. Native grasses and plants, or pollinator friendly crops would help. If you have people in the area who have bee hives, a clover mix would greatly increase their yield, still look relatively neat and also have roots that go down deeper into the soil to help prevent erosion. Never was fond of grass. Hated mowing it as a kid, because I had to. Put up with it as an adult because it got me out of the house for a while. I still never water any grass. Mother Nature can take care of that part. Less rain, less growth, less need for mowing. To use your terms, Did I mention how much I hate grass?
Darüber nachgedacht Gras erst mit 15cm / 6inch zu mähen, oder sogar bis 20cm / 8inchzu warten?
Deine Umgebung trocknet viel weniger aus, die Umgebungstemperatur bleibt kühler, der Boden heizt nicht so auf, und Umgebung bleibt feuchter, ab 15cm und mehr Höhe wächst Gras viel langsamer,
Und mindestens 5 cm / 2inch bei Regen, und normal 7cm 3inch Länge des Grases stehen lassen, dann bleibt die Optik gleich lang, und keine Flecken verbrennen und Trocknen so aus ...
Außerdem kann das Gras dann als Tierfutter benutzt werden, statt einfach zu vergammeln ...
Und außerdem können dann mehr Insekten und Vogelarten überleben, und nann sich an denen erfreuen!
Grüße und in Zukunft mehr Freude mit der Umgebung
Chickens like privacy so they will find a spot that is secluded. Try putting some material strips on the sides of the front loosely leaving a small gap. As far as the eggs in the corner every chicken farmer should have one of those soft cup style EZ reach and grab pickup tools for collecting eggs in hard to reach areas. They really save your knees and back.
Clean the area where they are nesting now and put the nesting boxes there with good clean bedding
Nathan, I also keep chickens and some lay on the ground under a shelf. We use an ice cream scoop wired to a cane. Works well.
I have learned so much sawing stragity from your explanations as you evaluate the logs, please continue!
Welcome 🙏
Regarding the eggs, not sure why they stopped laying in the boxes but you can try to add some bedding to the nesting boxes and try putting in a few fake eggs.
Agree on the fake eggs. Chickens have an instinct to lay their egg where there are already eggs. It only takes one wayward chicken to get them to switch to another location. I use golf balls as fake eggs to encourage them to stick with the nest boxes. My chickens are free range, so there is always a hen or two that still go out looking for greener egg laying pastures.
Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy your relaxed presentation and having watched your channel for at least the last 6 to 8 months, I've got used to your accent. I'm from what was called Rhodesia, now called Zimbabwe. We now live in San Diego, CA. - been here since 1979 !! Proud US citizens since 1984 !! Onwards and Upwards !!
John Henry said he was doin fine till you woke him up! LOLOL
he was out like a light, dead to the world.. LOL..
My son put wooden eggs to fool setting hens for some reason, can't remember why but maybe it might remind them where to go? Love the cats!
Wow, that was beautiful red cedar!
Thank you! Cheers!
HI N 😊😊 that cat said why did U wake me up 😮😮 I was sleeping 😴 😊 some kind of good the card board box was good and cool and comfy I dont blame that cat at all I would want 2 get some good sleep 😊🎉 2 thats the 1ST bat 🦇 😊 wing finishing mower I have seen I didnt know they made IVE seen the bat 🦇 wing bush hog be 4 😊😊 OMG 5 9 2O24
change the bedding in all of the nesting boxes
Thanks, as always, for sharing your slice of Heaven in NE Tennessee. Stay safe with all of the spring weather moving through. 🇺🇸
That’s some beautiful cedar boards.
Your chickens are looking for a bit of privacy for their egg-laying. Turn the nest boxes around and put them about a foot out from the wall. Just think about how a wild bird makes a nest where predators can’t find it or reach it, that’s what your hens are thinking about.
Check for red mite in the nest boxes
I made a little temporary back steps to my house 15 years ago. Made out of red cedar and some leftover deck boards of Brazilian walnut and everything is still intact 👑
I noticed when you got in the tractor the steel steps bent haha.Good to see you NATHAN,BLESS YOU AND YOUR,PEACE BOBBY.
Great video Mr. E! Tunes and editing are pro! Keep rockin it! The red sawdust is trippy!
Try fresh straw, fill the boxes up 1/2 way, the girl will line up waiting for their turn, no more crawling on your knees getting eggs🙋🏻
Love the variety of content. Chicken selection, lawn mowing, wildlife watching and sawing. Like buffet of choices, everyone has something they like. Thanks for sharing, with all the cats and more chickens, you gotta be running out of names for some of the role players! Again, thanks!
I really enjoy the music on your videos
Nathan. Try putting golf balls in the nesting boxes. It has worked for me in the past.
thanks,
Hi Nathan, Your videos are a great education to me in the UK starting a saw milling business so thank you. As for your egg 's in the coop well my chickens are now doing the same thing, nothing in the egg boxes but all on the floor and this is after 3 years of using the nest boxes all the time. Many Thanks
Gerald C Waldron, Bideford North Devon. United Kingdom.
Nathan, do you think it would be helpful to lay a row
of concrete blocks first, then place the planter frames
on top of that, to keep the wood from sitting on wet
ground after rains and make it last longer? 😁✌🖖
Put a camera mount in the tractor cab.
Sounds like you have some Justin Johnson guitar pickin' playing.
You might try rakeing the shavings out of the corners of your henhouse put new straw in your laying boxes and see if they will go back to laying in them chickens being creatures of habit will keep laying eggs on the floor unless you change the reason why they are laying there you might also lay a small area of poultry wire to make it an uncomfortable area to lay eggs but there is a reason why they changed to begin with so I would add new straw to entice them to start using the nest boxes again
Wish I could go to the conference, I've been following Joel and others that will be there. Y'all's homestead is looking good. Much love to y'all 👍👊💪💜🙏
With my hens, typically one will start laying in a "hidden" nest, and I was told it's because they want to keep their eggs (trying to defeat the daily egg thief). Then some others will follow suit and lay in her hidden nest. I simply put something in their nest (a bag of feed, bail of pine shavings etc..) to detour them from said spot, and that has worked so far.
Beautiful wood
Thank you! Cheers!
Nathan, (one more) If the chickens are going to continue
lay eggs, under the thing?/whatever, build a frame to fit
the space, with hardware cloth attached under it. Put it
in place and fill with wood chips. Now, when they lay eggs
back there, all you need to do is slide the frame out, get
the eggs and slide the frame back. No crawling under. 😁✌🖖
That one Instagram reminded me of a song, "John Henery was a roof bending man Lord Lord". Great video Nathan thumbs up.
Nathan those cedar logs made beautiful looking 👀 raised beds for gardening your gonna be the talk of the town along the way 😮😊❤
Hello Nathen, its been a long time since i raised laying hens, for some reason I have a feeling you need more boxes with that many hens. .not sure but check that out. also i get a kick out of people calling cedar trees Juniper .In Nova Scotia there a lots of Larch (Tamerack) and they call them Juniper ,go figure.
*WOW* Nathan the figure in both the E. R. C and the Black Walnut looks Amazing
Thanks for sharing with us Nathan, great video on what's happening on the home front. That mower is working great. Hope you can mow that bank in front of Mom's place. It would be nice if all six of the new chickens are hens, if not chicken and dumpling's are great. Stay safe and keep up the great videos. Fred.
Gorgeous wood! Really!
Thank you! Cheers!
that last log was sum pretty good looking cedar..
been getting a lot of rain here in SW Arkansas as well, guess we are just sharing with the VOL. state. :) and more expected next week , winds here for tomorrow 4/5 predicted to be from 10 -15 with gust into the 20's and 30's , so will pass that along as well , as far as what to do with the Walnut sawdust , was going to suggest to put it on the banks of your creek area , then thought about leaching into the creek and it may not be a good thing , might want to consider if there is a outfit that takes sawdust, know my granddad used to get loads of sawdust and then take it to the pulpwood plant to be used to make paper ...... and considering that you are in the area ( loosely) that I grew up in , know that pulpwood is a thing there and they May take Walnut sawdust as well, if there is still that type of production still going on in the area.
Nice 6x6
Thanks!
Hahaha love it the first time I got chickens I got 3 roosters out of a dozen chicks. The problem was they were banty roosters, the rest were bar red hens, now how does that work? Local farm stores can't always depend on suppliers. Love your videos 😊.
Raise the nesting boxes 6-12 inches and add more bedding they like the nesting boxes about the same height as the perch and if there isn’t enough bedding in the box they will go somewhere more suitable instead of filling their own nest. Chickens can also do that if they don’t feel safe such as physically seeing the eggs taken from the boxes or if it’s too close to the chicken door. They don’t have the best memory so if that hasn’t been a problem for 2 years or so I would bet it’s mainly the bedding since they’ve also probably been the same height for 2 years as well. Also I’d only put straw in the boxes no wood chips or sawdust or anything. Be sure to put a lot of straw in there they will throw out what they don’t want.
and you need more boxes
That homestead seminar sounds like fun. I haven't been back to Charleston since I moved away from Virginia in the early 1990's. Would be a nice trip to make the drive down there, do some fishing in the North Fork of the Shenandoah (second oldest river in the world) and spend a day in Charleston. I'll have to put a plan together for that and maybe see you there Nathan.
lunch is on me!
I would definitely attend if I was a little closer but September is a long ways off.
When I took a softwood lumber grading course, they were officially referred to as bark pockets.
I never knew that about black walnut sawdust being toxic, learn something new every day, thanks Nathan!
Great, now i went down this Black Walnut toxicity rabbit hole.
Regarding a new Edger, you may want to talk to Robert Milton. He has a custom made Baker Products "Hobby Hardwood model", and it is now a standard product. 20 hp 3 phase, double conveyor, custom length, and designed to edge smooth surface dry planed wood, as well as green wood off the mill. It even has custom blades that are now sold as a standard products.
Nathan, I have a joke for you... Why won't lumber mill itself?

Because it cant.
Oooohhhh. 🙄🙄🙄 😁✌🖖
Some v2ry nice lumber Nathan but perhaps of greater value to many is the great way you explain how you go about deciding just how you go about getting the most out of each log. Very useful. By the way, when I was a young lad my father had 500 chickens & I used to deliver eggs all around our suburb on my bike. He also had incubators & used to breed chicks. Cheers mate, Don from South Aust.
Nathan, your farm is starting to look like an equipment dealership. 🤣🤣 😁✌🖖
I'm from the west coast originally, red cedar out there is different. What you call cedar we call Juniper, not to knock the wood we loved it for the aroma when we smoked meat like mesquite. They also made great fence posts, most of it was on the desert side of Washington and Oregon.😊
Nathan you’re awesome.
All kinds of fun
My chickens lay like that too. Some in the nesting boxes, some in a corner of the coop. I just have me a long pole to get the eggs.
Nathan, block off the area the chickens are going to and place a few ceramic eggs in the nests, they will get the hint. Oh yea mark the eggs with a pencil so you don't harvest them. Good luck CJ
Your explanation on sawing that log with the bark inclusion was perfect. I'm not a sawyer, but I think I can handle a void like that next time I encounter one, lol.
That red cedar is really pretty wood. Such useful too.
I think so too!
I think you need to try putting some hay into the nesting boxes. They look a little bare at the moment. Our chickens love making a nest out of the hay and it seems to be what they’re doing in that back corner.
It's in Charleston. Looking forward for that weekend
Thanks NATHAN = Shoe🇺🇸
i also use the chips as trail cover in low areas or muddy areas
hello Nathan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Nathan & Friends Randy
It must be nice to mow the lawn in March. 4 Aprilin upstate New York, and we got about 5 inches of snow today. We got about 24 inches 2 wks ago. 😢
I like red cedar. Made my wife a beautiful sewing table for her Bernina Sewing Machine.
Your new mower is impressive. Good selection of equipment. My wife is from western part of Virginia, not far from Bristol. Kinda like home folks.
The only thing l know about chickens and eggs is that they taste good!
Why does everyone seem scared of roosters? The rooster's job is to protect the hens. If he comes after you, he is protecting the hens.
I am 60 years old, and I grabbed my rooster by his neck when he came after me. I didn't hurt him. While I had his neck, I gained control of his feet. I laid him on his side until he went limp and let him up. I did have one I called Rocky that needed a 2nd session. When you let them up and they run at you, they need a 2nd session. If they get up and walk away looking back at you, congratulations, you asserted your dominance on the rooster. Never run from a rooster, you are only feeding his dominance and you are making it worse.
Every now and then I see my rooster acting like he wants to try me again, I walk right at him until he walks away. He knows better. A good rooster can save your hens from hawks or other predators.
I had this happen with my chickens years back Nathan. I was told that it’s a nesting instinct. In fact when it happened it was in the spring. And like you, I had to crawl back to collect some of the eggs. And it seemed that when one laid eggs under the nesting boxes, the others started to as well. So is this true? I don’t know but it happened a few times over the years. I do want to have chickens again and haven’t living in the woods with lots of chicken loving critters. Kind Thanks and Many Blessings! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Careful Ethan, this may be a setup!
Thanks for sharing.
nesting boxes are all different there to low to the floor and you don't have a ledge running along front also you don't have enough of them grab some of your scrap timber and knock up some more better boxes and such then you will be right
cheers
Thanks for sharing another great video.
“I’m sure those chickens were laughing at me as I crawled on the floor to get these eggs!” Seems like the girls have a sense of humor!😏
Chickens will try to lay in the most hidden secure places. You might tru to gather all the eggs and put a golf ball inescapable box as a nest egg.
Nice cedar. I'd need to get some eventually to make some raised beds too.
I know a guy
Nice looking cedar....
Very windy here in Sc too
They are trying to hide the eggs from you. You keep stealing their babies. LOL 😂
Great video

I love how the mower blades sound like a WW2 fighter plane!!
my dad said same thing
@@OutoftheWoods0623 LOL!!! Let him fly it then ..!! We oldies relate to different stuff …I love watching his moves when he shows up in your videos …. Boom bam 💥 getter done and he’s gone!!…
Side note I love to mess with the algorithms for my favorite sites. More comments..... well we know how it works.😊
Boom!
the ones i always saw were up higher from the floor,,they may be scared of something,maybe a snake...i found snakes in the hen house all the time..,i would bring them up some about a foot,and put a camera in there a few nights to see if anything going on....there might be..again you might leave an egg in the box,,instead of taking them all..that might help to..chickens never forget where they always lay..
Probably something in the wood chips or there trying to hide them from you as you keep taking them
Get some fake ceramic eggs and put in the boxes. Mark them for your own reference. Some critter (that would be you) is stealing them so they're trying to hide them. Gotta leave one egg or they will move on you, hence the ceramic ones.
Maybe your chooks (adult birds laying eggs - chickens in australia means babys like you bought in) are getting clucky and wanting to raise some babys even though we know theyre not fertilised. The dont like you stealing their eggs so they lay them somewhere else trying to hide them from the egg thief! You may have problems introducing the new ckickens to the old chooks - pecking order and all that! Perhaps you should consider having a flock on the other property with a rooster and when the hens go clucky let them raise baby chickens. These could then replace your older chooks when you put them in the freezer!
a dog ball thrower works well for picking eggs off the ground however using a golf ball or a fake egg could work also put a blockade down in that corner to keep them from laying in the corner chickens like privacy while laying so you might install some curtains on the laying nests or maybe you have a snake coming in and out of the coop having 14 chickens you should be getting 10 or more depending on the age i have 15 and i get at least 12 a day sometimes 15
The cedar and yes I said cedar for to us that is what it is, is beautiful wood. Had my chickens to do because one went broody and occupied the nesting box. That doesn't seem to be your issue with the girls. Block off access to that back corner for a while, see if that doesn't help.
My parents and grandparents always had their nesting boxes off the floor. I should have paid more attention during my youth. It seems like they were about three foot above the ground. Made it easier for kids and adults to gather eggs. Never liked it when I got pecked by setting hens.
Chicken mutiny 😂😂
Hello America., Perhaps put the boxes , higher and seperate,, the girls are modest.,’ and keep clean , make 3 more boxes. For your new girls (we are your friends doug’ Goldcoast Australia 🇦🇺 )
?
I won’t run a sawmill, too old. Nonetheless, I love to learn, so keep on teaching, professor. 😀
i have chips and sawdust mix - let the pile set for year stirring the pile- it breaks down then use for compose - never had a issue
Put a wooden training egg in each box
You mow absent a strict regimen . Specifically the pattern makes loops, diagonals & circles that drive the experts & fanatics crazy.
I do the same, my property, my loops & circles, as many as necessary & even desirable 🗽🇺🇸👮🙏👌

also, the ones you are raising up in your garage will try to get back in there at night to roost if you leave a door open. have fun. Doc.
Rain? I have to go plow snow, about 18 inches or better and my tractor bucket apparatus broke yesterday, need to plow with side by side. Its a mess.
Chickens and cats... I always enjoy them.
Hens want to keep them away from you "stealing" them. Maybe you could get some in-house chickens that way.... oh, you need a rooster, of course.
