jemima and matilda Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 We have had our two hens for a couple of years and a few nights ago one started incessantly clucking at 5am. I wondered if a fox was near but on opening the window couldnt see any. Their eggs came hours later so wasnt that. Last night. I closed them up in their eglu for the night but right on que this morning, it started again! Any clues to why? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I've had the same problem and with 21 girls it has been very annoying Last night I shut everyone in their respective coops and covered the cube. I didn't hear a thing this am and let them all out at 7. that it continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scarlettohara Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Just follow the advice about leaving the ventilation holes clear I have no idea I suppose it's just getting lighter earlier ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
