wow my camera doesn't show my nest boxes that great. my EE just seems to go in and look like she is laying down waiting. LOL the times I have seen my SF is is flinging shavings all over, moving around etc.. butI can't see exactly what she is doing. that is really neat to see yours!!!!!!!! And yes she is most definitely a trooper! She laid Sun, skipped mon, then laid Tue-Sat skipped Sun and has laid Mon-Wed so far! I was expecting around 4 a week from her since that is what I read was normal so a bit surprised at how much she is laying! my SF says 4 a week too so guess we see what she does once she gets into a rhythm of laying. I figure once all 7 girls are laying I should have about 17-22 or so a week if they all lay the #'s I heard. So far Hummer is 2 over so it may be even more.9 eggs in 11 days... she's a trooper! Maybe your SF is just practicing... or maybe she will later in the day! Also, can we please talk about how chickens stand up like bears to lay their eggs? I had no idea until I saw Moon *actually* lay her egg this morning...
