the [egg] wait is driving me crazy!!!

[kari_dawn]

Mine have been doing that too! I had straw in my nest box, and they kicked every bit of straw and all of the fake eggs out! I've replaced it twice...I guess they think its fun to hunt for the seed heads in the straw...I changed it to shredded paper...we will see how that goes.

I need hugs

thanks, guys...this is why I love this place...chicken people just understand

I was busy getting the girls some treats when he got her

She didnt come running, so I knew something was up...she is always first in line for treats...no matter WHAT kind...All I can do is push forward. I ordered some more speckled sussex. My experience with Snow completely won me over...I MUST have more.
