Choosy Nester

Lady G has decided that the old bench on the front porch is a much better nesting place than her freshly cleaned coop. So she has figured out how to fly out every day around noon to lay her egg here. Then she startles me with her very loud announcement in front of the window, and wants me to put her back in her pen.

It wouldn't be so bad if the egg didn't crack every time because there are no shavings to soften its landing.

  3. Things look different since I was last here. Can you put some cotton batting in there to catch the egg? That is a funny story. Chickens have minds of their own, I guess.

    Hope you and the family are all well!
