I found this hen in the ceiling, hiding her eggs. One fell on the hay, giving her secret nest away. I don't like hens to hatch eggs up high, as the baby chicks fall off the ledge with Mom up high, still sitting on the other eggs. Cats are always on the prowl and I can't be there to intervene when the unmentionable happens. I will have to get the ladder to bring her down and put her eggs in a nest box in the chicken room. She will be furious with me, but I don't know what else to do.
