Rite Farm Products Washable Poly Chicken Nesting Box with Open Back
The Rite Farm Products poly chicken nesting box gives laying hens a practical place to nest while making egg collection and routine cleanup easier for the keeper. Made from high-density, impact-resistant polyethylene, this plastic nesting box will not rust, rot, or corrode like metal, and its smooth, washable surface is easy to keep clean.
The distinctive egg-shaped open back is especially useful in coops designed for rear or exterior egg collection, allowing eggs to be gathered through the back of the nest. An open top and back provide added ventilation and convenient access, while the modular design allows multiple nesting boxes to be mounted vertically or side by side as the nesting area grows.
Key Features
-
Washable Poly Construction: High-density, impact-resistant polyethylene provides a durable nesting surface that will not rust, rot, or corrode and is easy to clean.
-
Egg-Shaped Open Back: Allows access from behind the nesting box, making it a practical option for coop layouts with rear or outside egg-collection access.
-
Open, Ventilated Design: The open top and back allow better airflow around the nesting area and provide easier access when collecting eggs.
-
3.75-Inch Front Edge: Helps keep nesting material contained inside the box instead of spilling out during normal use.
-
Built-In Drainage Hole: A hole in the rear of the base allows water to drain during washing, helping simplify cleanup.
-
Modular Mounting: Additional nesting boxes can be installed vertically or side by side, making it easier to organize multiple nests without requiring a single large nesting unit.
-
Four-Hole Mounting Pattern: Provides four mounting points for securing the nesting box to a wall with screws and washers or bolts.
Made for Easier Nesting Area Maintenance
Traditional metal nesting boxes can eventually rust or corrode, while this polyethylene chicken nest box provides a washable alternative that is easier to maintain. The plastic construction also does not hold heat or cold the way metal can on particularly hot or cold days. With rear egg access, drainage for washing, and flexible mounting options, the design addresses several practical details involved in keeping a chicken nesting area organized and accessible.
