Yesterday Honey was in the nest box next to the store cabinet. I checked on her several times and she was settled in there. The next time I checked she was out and there was her egg at the bottom of the ramp to the nest box. It had a very small crack at the pointed end probably caused by rolling down the ramp on to the patio.<\/p>\n

This was her second egg this year and she had laid a soft shelled eggs two days before so I was quite pleased that this egg had a shell. This morning I decided to scramble it and give it back to the girls. I decided that I would put it on top of a dish of mash so that all the girls might get a bit.<\/p>\n

The egg shell was thin but not soft. As this is her fourth year of laying this is what I had expected and Honey is looking good.<\/p>\n

Butterscotch is the only girl not around the dish as she was in the nest box getting her daily egg laid. She missed out on the egg but she will be able to have some mash when she comes out. A big dish of mash like this usually lasts most of the day.<\/p>\n

At least broken eggs never get wasted as the girls appreciate them and we are enjoying the increase in eggs too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
