Oh those little stinkers! Well, now you're on to them ....
We have had occasional problems with the hens trying to hide their eggs and it is aggravating!
Oh, I am having the same problem! Apparently our five acres of grassy yard and shaded woods aren't good enough -- they are free ranging across the road for greener pastures. So far, no complaints form the neighbors but I don't want to cause a problem. Wish the silly girls would stay on their own...
We are planning to add sex links and Leghorns in the spring; our egg laying flock consists primarily of Barred Rocks, Buff Orpingtons and Rhode Island Reds right now. These are great layers but I have heard that nobody beats the leghorn!
