One of my hens looks like she is laying for the first time. The other hens are around her doing the egg song. But she has made a nest in the corner of my yard. She is still there right now. I don't want her to get into the habit of laying in the yard. Am I able to pick her up and put her into the nesting box or is that a really bad idea? Thanks!
*Edited to update* WOW! Just wow. Ok so I didn't move her because I didn't want to hurt her. I went over to check her nest and there are 7 eggs! 7! And all this time I just thought no one else was laying. It looks like some of the other hens are using this spot too because there are different colors in there.
