Sharing
I’m not sure why the hens will favor a particular nest box. There are three boxes in the henhouse for the four girls to share. In the winter months it was the box on the right that they used. Maybe because the morning sun shined in on it. This time of year it is the box on the left. This morning, Red (who was nesting for the longest time) has no choice but to share it with Little Bit whom pushed her way right in. Shorty. thereafter. two eggs were collected from that box.

Just catching up while taking care of business! They are like two women at the hair salon!
