Either option, wood or stainless steel, is equally fine for making chicken laying boxes. Wood is often considered easier to work with, building-wise, but it is completely up to you which you prefer. The chickens are fine with either of those, too, so long as you adequately pad the inside with something soft and keep it clean.
