Hi,
We have 2 sussex cross hens, Korma and Karala. Korma has just started laying eggs 4 weeks after her sister, Karala, who lays in the nest box . Just this week, Korma has started to go into the nest box for an hour or so, give up, come out and then lay smack in the middle of our lawn proudly announcing her egg with a loud rendition of the egg song. This has happened 3 days on the trot - how can I get her to copy her sister and lay in the nesting box. We have fake plastic eggs in there already - any ideas?
Many thanks
