Rainer that does suck. I'm beginning to wonder if my flame female is eggbound or if she just did the same thing. She's been in and out of the nest box for the last few days, but she's way past due.



Rich, I've had hogs do the same thing. When I bred them years ago, I caught several females eating eggs as soon as they laid them.......not waiting until they were all laid, but right out of the hind end. Makes you wonder how many make it in the wild.
