I proactively put the cocks in the section with the breeding boxes about 2 months ago. I only allow them half of the box. Each cock claims a breeding box and it becomes its perch.
When it comes around to putting the hens together with the cocks, it makes it a lot easier to settle everyone.
I started settling the pairs on Thursday of last week; I have no trouble makers, with the exception of one hen, the rest will lay by the weekend.
I'm feeding 100% Purina Green pellets (18%), calcium syrup & fertibol in the water, and high calcium grit with extra oyster shell added in.
Let the games begin!
