    I have had my coop built and my chix freeranging for months now, although still no eggs (19 weeks)...so last night I'm gardening out back and my chix go behind their coop, which they never do. All of a sudden Camilla (head chic) starts going nuts and screaming! I think she's laying an egg and...
