The breeder we got meika from had Hollow logs with little doors down the bottom to see the eggs/chicks, they were pretty big and long logs too.

Two places that show about breeding boxes. Logs are similar but you have to make sure they are hollowed out enough (sometimes, a large log wont be wide enough for an Alexandrine inside due to their requirements).

Hope this helped.

Note: for future purposes, you may want to post the majority of your Alexandrine queries in the Alexandrine part of the forums.
