My toddlers are just getting into egg laying.
Today I got 4 eggs for the first time out of 14 girls.
But this is the second time I have found an egg that has been pecked.
(Hole in the end)
I kept oyster shells available at all times. What is going on?
I watched some weird thing the other day, which may have something to do with it. A buff was in the box, trying to get comfortable. Well, a banty rooster got in the adjoining box and started the night song. @ 2 pm. He put his head around the box and stared at her while he sang. She kept walking in circles, picking up grass for a nest. But finally she got ticked off and left.
