She has laid everyday. She has her nest box that she uses. She only laid her first one outside as she had been in my lap. She had wanted to be held and carried on with each egg until this morning. This was her 4th egg. She made no fuss and just went in her box and laid her egg.

I have one black australorp and she is very skittish and is the only one out of 7 chickens that will not eat from my hand. She wants no part of me. She is so skittish.

I use rubber matts. I love them because I just hose them off every day so my coop stays clean (clean as a chicken coop could be)

In the South, I always heard of Golden Comet. Never heard Golden Buff until I ordered from Meyer Hatchery. They look and act exactly the same to me. My little Golden(Comet/Buff)is the sweetest, friendliest, loving little chicken I have ever seen. She loves to sit in my lap and perch on me.
