Innovative injection molded chicken nest box is draft free, but ventilated to keep the hens warm in winter and cool in summer.
- Interlocking system—lets multiple boxes connect securely using side locking tabs.
- Fold-up perch—keeps your hens comfortable by day and discourages broody behavior at night. Designed to fold neatly away, it also ensures droppings fall clear of the nesting area.
- Roll-out tray (optional)—for faster, cleaner egg collection. Eggs gently roll away after being laid, protecting them from pecking, and free from droppings. The built-in flap further safeguards against soiling—improving hygiene.
- Seamless injection-molded design—eliminates cracks and crevices where poultry mites can hide.
Note: We no longer sell the yellow ChickBox shown in photos at right.

My egg production went from 6-7 eggs per day to 0-1 a day due to hens eating them. Old boxes were milk crates next to the floor. My new Chickboxes have brought my production back up to 5-6 eggs per day. In 10 days of use so far I think only two eggs have been eaten. Very worthy product.

My hen started eating their own eggs and the new chix box has stopped this from happening most of the time. The hens are still transitioning and still need a little straw in the box which prevents the egg from rolling out. Every day I remove more of the straw and I'm sure the egg eating will come to a complete stop soon. I will order another box when I need it. Thanks for such a great product.

I cannot recall ever being as excited about a product as I have been about this. Nothing stopped my Rhode Island Red from eating her eggs and we didn't want to eat her. This stopped the egg eating and breakage. The box is super easy to install, and I haven't had to mount it to the wall, it works just as well sitting on the ground. After about a week, she started laying in it every day. Even when the egg doesn't roll into the tray, she won't peck at and break it. We are thrilled to have an egg a day from her, and know that this nesting box will last a very long time. Super easy to use, durable, and very well built. I will purchase more as needed!!
