Do you have false eggs in the nesting boxes yet?

I put some golf balls in there. I was cleaning out the coop yesterday and one decided to get in the nesting box for about 15 minutes and sang this soft little song and then she left. Do you think she might be getting ready to lay?

Could be? Let us know when they do. So eggciting.

Hello.

Lol. Hi Jaime!
Don’t worry about figuring out the site. You’ll get the hang of it. It’s not hard really.
Listen if I can do it, anybody can!
There’s a great “how to BYC” video. Which helps a lot.

If you get stuck, all you have to do is ask for help and you’ll have a dozen people ready to help you.

I’ll give you a tip though about posting videos.
They come in really handy if you have a chicken “doing something weird”.

You can post photos here directly from your phone.
Super easy. They’re a snap.

BUT, videos have to be uploaded to an outside site such as youtube or Vimeo first, then copy the link and post it with whatever you are posting about.
Glad you joined!
