And a very good question indeed.

For those with nest 'crowding' or waiting in line.....fake eggs/golf balls kept in the nests at all times can help 'spread the love'.

"Can" being the key word. <sigh> Now @aart do you really think my chickens are that smart? Took the fake eggs out because they'd toss them out onto the floor

I use the hard plastic ones from TSC, they weight almost the same as a real egg(I've put them in the basket before haha) as well as golf balls.
