My son just went out to close in the girls for the evening, he came in and our silkie was missing. So out we go with flashlights, can't find her anywhere! I pull out the 12' step that leads to my porch, and about 8 feet in is my girl....look around and I can count 22 eggs!!!! Well, I guess I've figured out why she isn't putting out!!! But now what do I do, the kids want to pull up the decking!!! The dh says the only place chickens look smart is on the grill. So it is going down to about 35 tonight and she is on the cold ground, I just hope she makes the night, but I have no idea what to do about all those eggs!!! I figure if she survives the cold, she'll come out in the morning as long as a skunk doesn't get her tonight!
