Miss Bossy's egg

Post by labradors » Sun May 27, 2018 11:04 am

Miss Bossy is in isolation for a while for pecking the other hens. Her run adjoins the main run with no access to the coop. I put an up-turned wheelbarrow/cart in her run to give her shade and to keep the food dry if it rained. Look where she laid her egg!

You put some straw back there and that is an ideal setting spot. Shade, privacy, protected three sides, she can set and look out, just ideal for a broodie mom. Not that she is or isn't broodie, but that is just the place.

Farrier is right. I should add some straw! She laid another egg in the same spot today :).
