Red lays another egg

Red laid three eggs, each one on the third day then stopped. It’s been seven days since she laid her last egg but she was in the grit and oyster shell both yesterday and today so I felt she was getting ready to lay again.

I checked on her this afternoon and she was settled in the nest box. I went to collect my camera as a post is always better with a photo. When I got back Red was laying her egg. I caught her just as she laid.

Well done Red. I am happy that she is laying again as I thought that she may have stopped at three eggs. I hope she continues to lay as any eggs are gratefully received.
