Every day I collect eggs from the nesting boxes. I was getting fresh straw for the ladies and found this nest hidden behind a bale. Evidently, they had a secret stash. From my reading, I gather a broody hen was waiting until there were enough eggs to start sitting on the nest. What the chickens can't do is read a thermometer or a calendar. It is January and the temps are hovering near zero. These eggs were all cracked and frozen solid.
