I think it is at least 2 girls, and we know Hazel is one of them now.<br /><br />Ester's Feathers - Every other time I've found an egg it has been carefully perched on the straw in a beautiful full nest. I don't know what Hazel's problem was, but she was very quiet about it. I can't wait to hear some egg singing! We have 2 nest boxes and I've had eggs in both, but most commonly in the one nearest to the door. They really do all have their own little personalities don't they!Metanoiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05585001609565808750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4274255743734869832.post-39788353398871209072009-08-18T05:57:03.648+09:302009-08-18T05:57:03.648+09:30wow, that really was a loud thunk! Poor Hazel. H...wow, that really was a loud thunk! Poor Hazel. Hens are all so different. My Ester goes in, quietly does her business, no drama, and she's done in a few minutes. Beulah is FAR more dramatic, and what's really hilarious is when she needs to lay when Ester is doing her business. Even though I have multiple nesting boxes, it HAS to be the one Ester is in. From a distance, it sounds like there's chicken murder going down.Ester's Feathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11914177114972281867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4274255743734869832.post-39803613567729920232009-08-17T16:11:15.681+09:302009-08-17T16:11:15.681+09:30We got two eggs yesterday!
