eggysoldiers Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 The last three days all three of my girls have laid. But they’ve all laid together, it’s super cute. They all go into the nest box together and when they eventually come out there’s three little eggs..... Is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Hahaha it’s a snug fit! you have some social layers, that just like to keep others company when laying their eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are so cute. 🥰 they do like to be together, but all three laying together is a new trend! love finding three warm eggs when they all emerge!

mullethunter Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 It’s not normal really 🤣 Certainly nothing to worry about though - some chickens are just weirdos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 It’s not THAT uncommon! Maybe your hens are just weird @mullethunter 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Mine regularly share the nest box, but rarely all lay at the same time; their cycles are on different time zones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 My photo was more the battle of the broodies and two other hens having to lay. 😇 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggysoldiers Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Love your pic cat tails 🥰 Glad mine aren’t too abnormal! Of course having posted this they have decided to unsync. Which is worse because whenever Martie can’t see the other two she stomps about shouting 🤣🙈 So egg laying has become a much noisier affair than the group effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
