My hens are perfectly content without a man around to pester them. ;)<br /><br />Well, Paz, it goes like this: the hens will get into their laying boxes, usually in the mornings, to lay their eggs. When an egg gets laid, the hen will cackle like crazy to let everyone in the whole wide world know what a great feat she has just performed. And when several at a time lay eggs, it's a cacophony not to be missed. THAT's when I know to go collect the eggs. Some hens will lay one egg per day, but usually they will lay every other day. They get lots of petting and praise for giving us eggs. Not sure if this <i>eggs them on</i> (I know, groan!) or not. :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04269469384082089761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27282181.post-15702454199325043482009-12-30T06:04:30.599-08:002009-12-30T06:04:30.599-08:00LOL!

Do they do this once a day? In the mornings?

It seems like more...They are so pretty, your gals. <br />It seems like more and more people have chickens now. Even in San Francisco I believe it is permitted to have 3 chickens - no roosters of course!anna mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053997040371741100noreply@blogger.com
