Do you need to put anything on the bottom of nesting boxes for chickens?
Writing from experience I can say you don't "need" to but I would highly recommend it. putting some straw,hay, lawn clippings or another form of padding will reduce the number of eggs your chickens crack when getting in and out of the nest. Plan on your chickens laying their eggs in the most secluded nests if you aren't sure which ones they are pick the ones that are least convenient for you.
