Hen Den Essentials Kit™

Your hens aren’t asking for scented candles—they’re asking for a clean, comfy spot to drop those eggs without drama. The Hen Den Essentials Kit™ gives you a mountable nest, cushy pads, simple egg-cleaning, and nutrition support so you can stop the daily egg hunt and start collecting like a pro.

Who It’s For

Backyard keepers ready to standardize the nest, reduce cracked/dirty eggs, and give layers a simple routine that works in real coops (mud, feathers, opinions included).

What’s Inside

• Little Giant Nesting Box — Tough, wall-mountable plastic nest with venting and a perch; easy to clean and designed for real birds (not photo ops). Approx. 26.5″ L × 15.9″ W × 19.8″ H; mounts on 16″-on-center studs via slide-type screw holes. AmazonPBS Animal HealthWilco Farm Stores

• Custom Nesting Herb Blend — A light aromatic sprinkle for fresh nest vibes. (For scent & enrichment—not a parasite treatment.)

• Happy Hen Nesting Pads — Excelsior pads cushion eggs, help keep boxes clean, and reduce breakage; sized to fit most nests. Happy Hen TreatsAmazonMary's Tack and Feed

• Manna Pro Egg Cleanser (16 oz) — Enzyme-based wash for the eggs that truly need it. Mix 2 capfuls per 1 gal warm water, soak 10–15 min, gently wipe/brush, rinse & refrigerate washed eggs. (For hatching eggs: 3–5 min in warm solution, rinse, incubate.) Dispose of solution after use. MannaProGrange Co-op

• Durvet Layer Boost w/ Omega-3 — Water-soluble supplement with vitamins, electrolytes, enzymes, omega-3s, marigold & Vitamin D3 to support lay and yolk quality. 1 scoop (4 g) per gallon of drinking water; refresh daily.

• Wire Egg Basket — Ventilated, durable, and deeply satisfying for daily collection (and zero more pocket-egg incidents).

How to Use (Keeper Playbook)

1) Mount & bed the nest

• Mount the Little Giant box securely on studs; place in a quiet, dim area and below your lowest roost to discourage sleeping in nests. Add Happy Hen pads and a light herb sprinkle for freshness. PBS Animal Health

2) Collect & clean smart

• Collect 2–3× daily to reduce cracks/soilage.

• Dry-clean first (flick/brush). If needed, mix Manna Pro Egg Cleanser per label, soak 10–15 min, wipe, rinse, and refrigerate washed eggs. For hatching eggs, limit soak to 3–5 min. Dispose solution after use. MannaProGrange Co-op

3) Support laying & yolks

• Mix Durvet Layer Boost at 1 scoop (4 g) per gallon; refresh water daily. Use during stress, peak lay, or whenever birds need a nutritional nudge. Pair with free-choice oyster shell for calcium. DurvetChewy

4) Carry & cure the chaos

• Gather with the wire basket so eggs can air-dry and you can actually see what you’ve got. Store or gift like the organized keeper you are.

Keeper Notes & Safety

• The herb blend is aromatic only—keep boxes clean and dry for mite control.

• Durvet Layer Boost supplies vitamins/D3 & more; it’s not a calcium source. Offer oyster shell free-choice. PBS Animal Health

• Washed eggs lose the bloom; refrigerate them and eat first. MannaPro
