A method for rolling out eggs from the nest system which includes inclining backward the concaved nest area of the tray sufficiently such that when the eggs are laid in the nesting area gravity will cause the laid eggs to gently roll through the egg aperture of the back plate and into each of the respective egg nesting-gathering areas.
