This morning...
Bear decided to lay an egg in there, you can just see her little face peeking out. Now--I cannot THINK of a more uncomfortable nest than a pile of pure rose branches, with all those thorns! I SWEAR they have nest boxes, lovely proper wooden ones with loads of fresh straw.
Nope. Nothing will do but this nasty pile of thorny branches. Even Phoenix the rooster was looking at her like she was nuts.
Weirdos.
From my brother:
ReplyDeleteWow! That's the chicken brain, for you.
It's like the chicken version of the Hindu bed of nails. And by the end of the day, we found FIVE eggs in there.
