More pullets laying, I hope?
See what I mean by being able to see if it leaks???????
Well, off to make the tamale pie, complete with a home made salsa of tomatoes and tomitillos...
Yes finally! There has to be at least 4 laying now, as I collected 3 days ago and check for eggs every day. They are refusing to lay in the coop!!!
They never lay in the same spot twice iether! Today I collected 10 eggs, cracked 2 open and both had the bullsey, I even went and cross checked with pictures posted on telling the difference. They were deffinately bullseyes. So I put the remaining 8 eggs in along with two from my barred rock girl.
These little buggers like to hide their eggs from me. Any tips on getting them to lay in the provided coop/nest boxes? Im thinking of biting the bullet and purchasing some wooden eggs, as the golf balls dont seem to be doing the trick with these girls...
Maybe lock them in a pen, so they have access to their coop to go lay, if even for the next few weeks, and no free range until they behave.
