That's probably not a bad idea. My husband "caught" her today, first thing this morning. He opened the pop door (around 6:45), and heard one pullet clucking the "I laid an egg" cluck from the upper roost. Underneath her was an egg smashed on the mesh, but still relatively warm.
Maybe putting a fake egg in each nest (since we collect in the afternoon and the boxes are empty overnight save one late/really early layer) would be a good idea.
Of course, I asked him if he could recognize the culprit; his response was "Well, she was red..."
And that as a description, esp. coming from someone who is colorblind, is not particularly helpful.
LOL !!!!! How could he tell you she was red if he is colorblind ??? Yes put a golf ball in each nest and see if that help !!!
