If your talking about a perch where they sleep they like to sleep in high places so if it's off the ground andsomewhat high then they should go up on there own. If you're talking about an egg laying perch then you have to make it somewhat small and enclosed except for a place to get in and out of. If they don't know to lay in it then you should put Golf balls in it so they realise that its a good place to lay.

Your chickens dont sleep on the rail instead they sleep in their nests what do you do?

When your chickens are younger than one year, they typically tend to sleep in a nest (the instinct that they have when they are chicks makes them do this). If you are having the problem, don't panic - it's fine, normal and is not harmful. You can encourage them to sit on the perches by pushing them out of the nest each night, but other than that, you can just wait until they mature, and they will eventually perch themselves.My chickens are on their first moult (they're one yr old), and only started doing this about 3 months ago. Hope that helps.
