My side hills are clumps of it, and for three years have found eggs there, not more then 100 feet from log coop. I sit on the back porch with a cold one watching through some great binoculars and can see upclose the area, and then mark it with surveyors tape so it is easily spotted all summer long in the thick brush. Then gather some, and always leave 4-6 in there, I know they see me, but they never just left for another.

Like Larry says, you ain't gonna force them to lay where ya want, but I think my older ones will stay to the coop as they did last year. Now the first timers are hanging close to the coop, and even inside most the day, so maybe old Thelma and Louise have talked to them about this! Hey, ya never know!
