How many hens does it hold?

It has two laying compartments, so it suits a small flock of roughly four to eight hens. Large breeds may only fit one bird per bay.

Is it suitable for ducks?

Yes. The plastic floor and front guard work for ducks and other poultry, though the bays are shallow for heavy ducks.

Does it need to be mounted?

It sits on the coop floor or a shelf. No mounting hardware is included, so wall fixing needs your own brackets.

Lift out the bedding, then wipe the plastic base and steel frame with a damp cloth. The floor is ventilated, so it dries quickly.

No. The floor is slightly angled toward the back and the front guard holds eggs inside until you collect them.

Our take on the Pitched Roof Chicken Feeding Trough

This is a two-compartment steel-and-plastic nesting box with a pitched roof and a front guard. The angled, ventilated plastic floor keeps eggs in place and makes collection easier, and the guard holds bedding back. It suits small flocks of hens, ducks and other poultry that need a private laying spot in a coop. Compared with open wooden nest boxes, it is easier to clean and more weather-resistant, but the two bays are tight for large birds and the steel frame is light.

What reviewers say

Owners of small flocks report the box is easy to assemble and clean, and the angled floor keeps eggs from rolling out. Some say the compartments are tight for big hens and the metal feels thin.
