    We're doing the egg song all wrong

    It has fake (wooden) eggs in it. She used to use it all the time - she's just changed her mind about her preferences, and there is no changing it back. But also definitely didn't have to lay. She hopped out like, wth are you guys up to? Walked back outside and the putputputputs began. She laid...

    We're doing the egg song all wrong

    Yeah, I feel like that's probably it. Mixed with a little bit of "i am bored and resent being "trapped" in the run when I view the entire yard as my domain." I just let her out after a bout of yelling and she's now just happily pecking away, totally silent. She is just so bossy.

    We're doing the egg song all wrong

    I have two girls, both a year old. The RIR never sings an egg song, just goes into her egg box and takes care of business (she's kind of a slow layer, so sometimes she chills out for an hour or two). The problem is her sister, a Barred Rock. While she rarely sings an egg song for herself - over...
