Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[hippy chick]

Penny laid her first egg this morning

It was very small but perfect. I was so eggcited I brought it inside to take a picture, put it on the worktop next to a ruler to measure it but I knocked the ruler whilst i was geting my camera and it fell on the floor

I had to fib to my son and say that one of the other chucks must have stood on it I couldn't bear to own up

She has made herself a perfect little nest in the NB that "Ooops, word censored!"ody uses. I'm so proud of her what a clever little girl

I have been so excited since she started to crouch last week.

Oops.

 

I have to admit to doing something similar.

Congratulations on the egg . My brother once let all the eggs slip out of the egg basket while reaching into the nestbox

congrats on the egg.

 

As you see in my signature one of my hens is named penny too

[MarkBevBen]

Awww bless you for knocking it over, that's the sort of thing I'd do too

 

Congratulations on Penny's first egg though and may it be the first of many lovely eggies!
