they are all fine walking up the ramp as i have put food all the way up it then a big pile in the roost. they eat all the food off the ramp but wont enter the roost for the rest.

Just keep putting them in the house every night,

 

They'll soon get the idea,

 

Cheers fd.

thats all i do and as soon as one learns they will all follow that stuiped thing leave them locked in if you leave them locked in that deosnt mean they will know how to get up the ramp cause they only now what the inside of the coop like not what it looks like from the outside ive had geese quail ducks chickens and that all ways works

if you are lifting them in, how do they find out how the ramp works? their POL chickens, not babies, thats bull about needing to know how the ramp works

well in the morning do they just float over the ramp no they walk down it and that bull about knowing how the ramp works well if they know how the ramp works they would go up it wouldnt they

they have no need to go up the ramp though, as they are unaware they are supposed to sleep in the space up the ramp! its not a case of not being able to use the ramp, but they dont have a reason to use it!

I agree, plus scatter feed their only feed in the house, they will soon go in when hungry.
