Faux eggs

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 

Does anyone know whre I can get real looking and feeling decoy eggs?  A few of my hens have started eating the eggs.  My book suggests placing decoys in some of the laying nest. Any other advice appreciated.

I got a half dozen white fake eggs from eggcartons.com. Good Luck!

A wonderful husband, 8 laying hens (2 Gold Comets, 2 Barred Rocks, 2 EEs, 1 Black Sex Link, & 1 Lavender Orp), 2 sassy cats and 1 salt water reef tank including 2 nemos!

 

27 new hatchlings...it was my best hatch ever

Cheaper way, not necessarily easier - blow out a couple of eggs. Make the hole at one end a little bigger so you can fill with plaster of paris and let it dry/harden. Most real looking eggs you're girls are going to see. :)

You may try plastic Easter eggs.
