I bought two this time. I already had 3 of them. Assembly is quick. Hens started to use the new ones right away.

I think I have about 7 of these now all around my property, we run a poultry business. At first they didn't take to them easily. So I stuffed some hay in there and taped the curtain back so they could see straight in. Now they are being used. I love the fact that the eggs are spotless and easy to collect.

These single nest rollaway hen nest are the best that I’ve seen. Easy to assemble and easy to connect multiple nests together. Shipping was also very fast. I’ll be purchasing more since I have 200 birds here at Green Acres Poultry Farm.

Be patient putting these together. I put together 4 units. The first one took a half hour and was frustrating, after trial and ever the key is to only tighten the screws slightly. This allows you the Iglesias room to put it together...sanely. The other 3 only took 15 minutes each. Of course after I put them together did I find the separate, better instructions in a different box with the packing label.
