All about this product
Product description
The floor of this single nest measures 13 by 10.6 inches. The plastic tray beneath it is the same length but a little narrower at 10 inches across. Use the compartment measurements when checking space for a hen and the lid measurements when planning where the nest will sit. The lid measures 21.7 by 13.6 inches, so a spot that fits only the basket may be too tight above it.
The front guard helps contain bedding as the hen enters and leaves. Openings in the slightly angled plastic bottom allow air through the nest. Position the unit where you can reach the front easily to check bedding and collect eggs. It weighs about 6.2 pounds before bedding and requires assembly.
Why we chose it
The bedding guard helps contain loose material, and the separate measurements for the basket and lid make it easier to plan a spot within an existing coop.
