How to build a henhouse is simple. Do chickens go back to the henhouse by themselves at night?

You can weave bamboo baskets or baskets with bamboo chips, or you can use unused tires and evenly spread straw or discarded clothes inside to make a simple chicken nest. The henhouse can be placed in a dark place in the henhouse, or in a place where chickens often rest. Chickens have the habit of going back to their nests, and their eyesight will be affected at night, so they will take the initiative to go back to their nests to rest.

First, how to build a chicken nest is simple.

1. Weaving bamboo pieces into bamboo baskets and baskets, or using discarded car tires, straw baskets and plastic pots can all be used as chicken nests.

2. Dry straw or waste clothes covering about two-thirds of the henhouse need to be spread evenly inside the henhouse, which can not only ensure the warmth of the henhouse, prevent chickens from catching cold, but also ensure that hens do not break their eggs in the henhouse.

3. The prepared henhouse can be placed in a place that is protected from light and rain, such as a dark place inside the henhouse or a place where chickens often rest. Be careful not to put it in a place where water will accumulate, which will lead to humidity in the henhouse, and chickens will always catch a cold in the henhouse.

4. You can put an egg or white pebbles and table tennis in the henhouse to create a feeling of peace of mind for the hen, and the hen will start laying eggs in the newly-made henhouse.

Once the chicken starts to lay eggs in the henhouse, it will form a habit and be fixed in the henhouse to lay eggs without manual coercion.

2. Will the chicken go back to the henhouse by itself at night?

1. Chickens have homing characteristics and are used to resting in the same place.

2. When it gets dark at night, the chicken's vision will be affected and it will almost be blind. When it gets dark at night, the chickens will go back to the henhouse to rest.

3. After the chickens return to their nests at night, they will stay in their nests all the time because of their eyesight, and will not come out for activities.

Third, how do chickens sleep?

1. Chickens are birds. When sleeping, they will grab branches or sticks with their claws like birds and bury their heads in their wings to sleep.

2, the chicken's sleeping position is standing on one foot to sleep, and the other foot will be tucked in the feathers and buried in the wings.

3. Chickens are social animals. When the weather is cold, they will curl up in their nests and sleep. When they have a rest, they will curl up on the ground and sleep.

Chickens only have a shallow sleep, but they can't sleep deeply. This sleeping habit comes from chicken's genes.
