[CHICKENS-101] Re: Silkies hiding eggs

 

One of my Game hens hid her nest in a wood stove. She went in through the fitting for the stove pipe. Another his her nest in an old van engine compartment on the battery holder. Both of those took me a long time to find and I only did because I watched the hen, broody, going back to her nest.

Another will get under the metal casing of a computer to hide her eggs from me. She can't see me, but I can see her fluffy tail sticking out. Silkies will also spend hours covering their backs and sides in bedding, then lay flat as a pancake. Silkies are too funny! Cathryn
