eve Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Cant belive it couldnt find one of my girls sky looked everywere then heard her in the garage, when my son of 7 found her behind a load of paint tins there was 15 eggs!!! I have 6 girls and get 6 eggs from the coop most days,so never thought they would be any anywhere else. Can i use these?? I dont have a cockerel, she is the bottom of the pecking order and even though i collected the eggs she still lays there everyday. Funny little hen but i do love it and my son so excited he found all the eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beantree Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Our neighbour's little hen had stashed 23 in the barn whilst he was away, potentially 4 weeks old. We found and binned them(intact) but on his return he insisted the flotation test was totally reliable so we got them out of the bin and he tested them, ate them and he seems OK.
