we got our first egg two days ago (nothing yesterday... is that weird?) from our BR. We usually let them free range when we are home, but now i'm afraid they'll lay somewhere in the yard??? Or will they know to go back to their nesting box?
They are 21 weeks (the other is a RR and NADA from her).
Any suggestions? the first egg was layed in the nesting box, RIGHT NEXT to the fake egg, and it looked EXACTLY the same! super clean, weird right? so, i thought it was fake and broke it when i put it back in the nesting box... ugh....
so, will they go back to their nesting boxes to lay? and i'm starting to think we need a 3rd chicken for our back yard flock...
