I've got an egg eater in the coop! What to do????

[ckseals]

Bought two new chooks and the other night went to check on all my girls and one of the newbies was sitting on one egg, and another egg was in front of her and she was pecking into it...it had been eaten. Both the egg she was sitting on and the egg she was eating were not her own. They were the eggs of the two hens she picks on all the time. How do I get her to stop!?

Freezer camp!

First get her out of there before she teaches bad habits to the others. You could try mustard eggs. Blow an egg out and fill it with mustard. Chickens supposedly hate the taste so much it cures them. Good luck.

A trip to the pot. But if you still would like to keep her, place her in a separate pen with a nest of her own.
