thank you will try it outTake the egg and put it in one of the nest boxes, or better yet, eat the egg and put two or three golf balls in the nest where you want her to lay. You may have to set something in the spot where she laid the egg to disuade her and make her look else where. When she sees the egg or golfballs, she will get the idea. I think they think that if there are eggs there, it is a safe place to lay. I keep at least one golfball in each nest box, I call them "patterns!"
