My chickens just started laying eggs this week. We have noticed that they have been pecking at the eggs when we collect them. Ideally, I would collect them in the morning, but there hasn't been anything there in the morning. Is there any reason they would both be pecking at the eggs? I can't get them to lay in the nest boxes...they insist on the floor. Any ideas? Is this a dangerous habit?
