I have two hens and one rooster all are housed together in a huge 13ft x 16ft pen they have perches to roost on and two houses. I feed them a mixture of Layeena, Chicken Scrath and a sweet goat feed mixture I also have a flock Block in the pen with them. for some reason My one hen is eating her eggs....well all the eggs. She was sitting on a clutch of 7 fetil eggs for about two weeks and then I noticed that she was not returning to the nest so I checked on the eggs and they were all gone! I have seen this hen eat eggs before...Is there something I am doing wrong? My paen is made so that nothing can get into them except snakes but I couldnt imaging a snake eating 7 eggs in one sitting. is there anything else I can do to get her to stop this behavior?
