    Agnes (drama queen) leaving her eggs under the fern

    Thank you for your reply - that is exactly what I "want" to do.. I just didn't know if it was the right thing to do, or if I should try to force her to go into the nesting boxes. I will investigate some kind of mini-nest just for her. Thanks again. jann

    strange behavior question

    Yea, I totally agree, she(?) did seem extremely frightened. BUT - they were in the basement, back in the brooding box when it started. She's always been just a little different than the others (that is what makes me most nervous;-). There really wasn't anything in the basement that would spook...

    Thank you for your response Timothy - we are in Portland Oregon, heat has not been a problem (yet). It's wet outside and temperatures range from 50-73 or so. Agnes, stayed on the water dispenser all night. At 5 this morning I looked out the bedroom window and saw she was standing at the door. I...
