Whilst out cutting the grass ( you do a lot of that at this time of the year) , I spotted a hen, sitting suspiciously. And on closer insepction there was an egg.
And when i turfed her off the eggs , there were a load of eggs. 15 in this batch , and another 3 a short distance away
So she has been laying egges here for 3 weeks , and then started to sit on them.
As we arent so far planning to hatch any chicks of our own, we put her back in with the others.
But this is 3 boxes of eggs we could have sold !
