Which Bainbridge Nesting Box Should I Choose?

The best configuration depends on your available space, the layout of your poultry area and the amount of nesting capacity required.

If the nesting system will be positioned against a wall, choose one of the single-sided configurations.

If the nesting system will stand in an open area and you want nesting access from both directions, choose one of the double-sided configurations.

The range progresses from compact 1-hole and 2-hole units through to larger 8-hole, 12-hole and 16-hole systems, allowing the nesting setup to be matched more closely to the requirements of the flock and poultry area.
