I cant really tell you anything from experience, but base on my research, any of them is fine.
If you have both, then let the hen choose. put them both in if they fit.

hope that helps, but then Im sure theres someone out there that can give u better advice based on their own experience.
all the best mate!

thanks and i have found a 30cm wide hollow log with a 10cm wide peep hole and also a boot shaped nesting box :) i have put both in and they seem to like the log because she is going in and out of it every 5min
