Delivery was prompt. Packages intact. Difficult to follow instructions though.

We had a hard-core egg eater, very expensive, breeding hen. Nothing would stop her. So as a last resort, I bought one of these. Our birds are Jersey Giants, and this box is a bit small, but they learned to cram their fluffy butts in. And since then, I have not lost any eggs! Just wish the company would make larger boxes and assembly instructions that weren't like Ikea.

Great box, I have leg horns and Rhode Island reds, they share the box just fine and the eggs are clean and uneaten. The pad is durable and the box is easily cleaned with a water hose. Just added a few drill holes to the bottom of the egg catcher so dirt can make its way out although very little gets in. Great box for the price!!!

Works great for the hens that fit in there, unfortunately most of my hens are too big for this nest. Wish they made larger 16" X 16" nest area, which is what my hens need. Great for normal egg layer breeds.
