    Will my free range chickens lay in the coop?

    My chickens are only in the coop at night and free range a very large area all day long. One of my girls is very close to laying as her comb has darken and she is squatting when I go to pet her. Will she come back to the coop to lay? How will I know if she lays the egg somewhere else?
