    hens eating their own eggs

    I have golf balls in the nestboxes, & they figure out they don't have a taste, so in turn they leave the eggs alone, just as stated by the above poster with the fake eggs

    Different types of hay to put into a chicken nest?

It must be hard for the hens to sleep while...
