chicken straw
No Chickens will eat hay and straw, they will also search under the bedding to find bugs and stray seeds.
Wood shavings are best but straw will do assuming they are completely feathered. It's hard for little feet to scratch large straw around and search for food. Shavings offer better absorbing qualities and retain heat better than straw.
I suppose they would if it was in doors and had pleanty of straw in it
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.
Chickens generally do not eat hay as it is difficult for them to digest. They mainly consume grains, seeds, vegetables, fruits, and insects as part of their diet. Providing them with straw for bedding and nesting material is more beneficial.
Chickens don't grow. Plants grow. Chickens are born.

Many farms have a cage/hut with straw, which acts as a soft nesting site, where the chickens can lay their eggs.
Chickens need the same things other creatures need.......food, water, and shelter from predators & the weather.
