Sooo....im not the OCD chicken mom (although i am considered "that crazy chicken lady"), and usually dont mind where my hens are laying their eggs. I'm actually around them (32 hens/3 roosters) so much, that i know the spots my laidies choose and actually who likes to lay where. So its not some crazy easter egg hunt everyday.
But today, as i was cleaning out the coop, and installing a new roosting ladder, at the TOP of my coop, where the pitch of the roof starts to slant down, i found 45 NASTY eggs!!! I didnt think that hens would lay sooooo high (10 ft from coop floor to roof).
Most of my hens lay in their boxes (we have plenty), and some lay in their 2 favorite flower pots by my garage. But evidently some of my ladies are laying WAAAYYY UP HIGH
