Empty nests all around but Ruby insists on using the same nest that Jacqueline is using. Hens often have their favorite nests, and if it is in use, it doesn’t matter. The empty nests right next door won’t do. They have to use the nest that’s occupied. The way they squeeze in is interesting to watch. They usually squeeze in very slowly. I’ve seen three hens squeeze in at the same time. It makes me wonder what is wrong with the empty nests? I think that some hens aren’t satisfied with a nest unless it’s in use.
