NannyOgg Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Early this morning I found a hidden and slightly squashed egg in the nesting box which I think was laid by our Wyandotte, Hermione. As I was putting the egg port door back I noticed a dark brown egg behind the wheel of the cube which I had to crawl into the run to retrieve! I think our Barnevelder, Ebony, laid this...she's bottom of the pecking order so I'm guessing she wasn't allowed in the nest box . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Shame the egg was squashed, but how great to have two new girls laying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneyolktoanother Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 congrats it is a shame about the egg cracking, i had this at first when the girls started laying they would lay in the run but they soon got used to laying in the coop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
