I'll have to rig something up for a nest box. We always have scrap wood hiding out in the garage for small projects like that. I'll definitely have to try the golf ball to lure them into laying in it. They seem pretty freespirited in their wonderings and I don't want them to get in the habit of laying eggs out in the woods somewhere. I don't know if she was pleased about her egg or not, but I certainly was happy to see it. Our Buckeyes and Australorps lay perfectly fine brown eggs, but green eggs are just fun to see.

A small pet carrier without a door on it works well as a nest box, as does an enclosed cat litter box or one of those square buckets that cat litter comes in, turned on its side.

Assorted chickens, Narragansett turkeys, guineas, black-shouldered peafowl, red golden pheasants, yellow pheasants, muscovey ducks and blue runner ducks (the last of the fawn runner ducks will be going to the panhandle with Teach this weekend) - I will find out how many of each when the Dept of Ag comes out to NPIP test in early March.

You are certainly correct. All must train to do the job as safely and efficiently as possible.
