I like the way they make a spot to bed down. And once in a while I'll find one or two eggs in it.

But usually they lay the eggs behind the box and towards the back (of course).

And the past couple days where there is one, there are two. Today was the first day I actually collected a warm egg. And it was laying against the other egg. Maybe the second hen thinks that's as good a place as any? Or maybe seeing one hen lay gets her in the mood to lay herself in the same spot.

Either way, maybe because there are so few at the moment, I am not seeing the random/anywhere they fall egg laying the youtubers say to expect from quail.
They have all been in the shavings and somewhere around the box.
