Today I noticed that Willy was acting more different than she normally acts. She was squawking really loud, hiding behind the shed door away from the other chickens, and trying to find a place to nest. I knew she was ready to lay her first egg. I cleaned the chicken coop and put fresh straw in the nesting boxes so the when she was ready, she would have a comfy clean place to lay her eggs. I'm not letting them free rage tomorrow because when she does decide to lay an egg I want it to be in the nesting box and not hidden in my yard. I'm so excited!! I know she's ready. If Willy doesn't lay an egg today, I know she will tomorrow.
