wow - great pics.

Mine laid one the other day - Is that a prepared nest box or her normal home?

I think i should keep mine in her prepared nest box for a while to see if she lays any more?

Great pictures, it amazes me that the mom doesnt break the eggs. I decided to change my substrate in one area of the shed on Sunday & found 8 eggs - I hadnt a clue about them, No stroppiness, pacing & no males up either!

They were all soo close together, surprised I didnt break them.
