How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Update* last night when I closed the coop, there were two more GC eggs in the nest box. Jade was sitting on them and protested mightily when I rousted her into the coop and took the eggs. That makes five eggs from four hens today, even in this miserable heat we’re having in Georgia.

3 in the coop this morning, not in the nest box. One of the Banty eggs is usually a light brown all over but this morning it seems lighter, almost white in one end. And the GC egg was banded. I cracked that one with the chain as I locked the gate so I scrambled it, shell and all and tossed it out for the girls.

I got 5 eggs today, and one of them was actually laid in the new roll away nest box! The other 4 were in the coop. :(

I made some changes to the coop that I hope will discourage its use as an egg laying location.

ETA: I found another egg this afternoon, laid on the floor of the run. The hen dug out a nice nest to lay her egg in.
