We have 8 chickens of assorted breeds. Our Rhode Island Red ("Red") always follows our Barred Rock ("Rocky") up to the coop at laying time and eats the egg. Only Red does this, and she only eats Rocky's eggs, none of the others. Rocky sometimes lays from the roost into the waste tray, and sometimes in the nest box. All other chickens behave normally.
Short of making Red (and/or Rocky) next Sunday's dinner, does anyone know enough chicken psychology to offer a solution? Ever heard a story like this?
Thanks
