Title: False Labor?
Post by: mldeed on 05-Apr-10, 08:24:12 PM
Thought Beauty was acting like one of my Great Aunt's old hens at egg-laying time this evening.  Watched for nearly an hour.  Starting around 7:00.  Very encouraging twitches and rustlings and carrying-on.  And then Beauty left -- no egg. . .  I did note that her departure came soon after a fly-in from Archer a little after 8.

I believe it's a work in progress...she's spent far more time in and at the nestbox today than she ever has before...
