The ladies are laying pretty consistently now ~ we get at least 2 eggs a day and most days 3. But they are getting smart those little ladies, especially Martini! I realized that she wasn't producing recently and had read somewhere that some hens may find different spots to lay because they want to protect their eggs (and wisen up to the fact that every day they lay an egg and it goes missing! She was acting extra funny one afternoon and was pecking at the sliding glass door to go in the house while we were out in the garden. She was so persistent that we finally let her in and she layed an egg behind the curtain! So I wasn't surprised to find that there weren't eggs in the nesting box over the next few days. I went in the yard one day while she was "missing" and took a broom stick and was going through the bushes to see if I could find her...and wouldn't you know she came out from UNDER THE DECK with a broken eggshell in her mouth!! Then I looked under the deck and saw that she had laid 3 other eggs under there! I took the broom handle and nudged them out so Cam and I are going to have to work on getting under the deck blocked off. For the next couple days I made sure to just keep her in the closed run until she was done laying the egg, this way she had no place else to go.
