Yep, me too but I use real eggs in case she's onto me. I find it a real treat to gather eggs from somewhere other than the nest boxes - seems more real and farm-like to me. In fact, my chickens can't help themselves because the 100 year old barn even has old wooden fruit crates nailed to lots of outside and inside walls where the chickens of days long ago used to lay.
One visiting nephew came running in all excited saying "Aunt Monique, Aunt Monique, I found a nest in the barn and there must be 30 eggs in it." He was so excited. He thought he had discovered a gold mine.
