Creative Nesting Boxes

Whenever my wife and I visit yard sales or a flea market, we keep an eye out for cat litter boxes with lids. They usually sell for a couple of dollars. We give the litter boxes an extra scrubbing at home, and then use them as nesting boxes for our hens.

We find that they’re easier to keep clean than wooden nest boxes, and they’re cheaper, too.
