HERE YE HERE YE......THE CULPRIT HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!
It was my husband's best friend!!!!!! I called up my girlfriend, whose husband is my husband's best friend. I asked "Do you know anything about a prank being pulled on me?" And she said "You might want to talk to my husband about that!". AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! She proceeded to tell me that he had planted the egg Saturday night, but she knows nothing about the two today...hmmm...
The relief!  The anger!  The plotting!!
I need a SUPREME idea for getting the monster back! I thought about hiring someone to go to his house acting like a city official telling him that they are violating code#### by having chickens within 1/2 mile of a hospital (they also have chickens) and then telling him that they will have to be removed immediately. Then leave him to explain to his wife why the chickens are missing when she gets home.
Any better ideas?? I'm up for ANYTHING at this point!!
Thank you all for your patience. I am quite relieved & exhausted that this has finally been figured out. But has yet to be resolved. Hahahahahaha!!!
