Don't disturb me!

This little speckled hen is sitting. She isn't that delighted when I remove the eggs from under her every afternoon. At least she isn't as vicious as one of the others, which tries to peck you when you remove the eggs from her...

I know from personal experience as a boy how painful collecting the eggs can be, interesting capture Dianne:)

[Louise]

I would feel very intimidated by her!

[Pat Knowles]

You take a risk pinching eggs out from under her....they do like to nip! Lovely shot of sitting mum....poor girl, all in vain!

[Marnie]

You're brave pinching her eggs like that. Lovely looking bird.

[Jane Pittenger]

She looks intent on her job

[Steve and Pam Winfield]

Lovely have you ever bred from her?:)

@stevepam yes, but our current rooster’Russel Crow’ is passed his use by date...
