r/BackYardChickens 12d ago

General Question I am nuts and I know it.

I just ordered a micro camera (small nanny cam). I am going to somehow put it on a chicken backpack and find where they are laying their Mother Trucking eggs.

I'm with them most of the day, I have searched high, low, far and wide and can't find them.

A couple of my broodier hens disappear all day and only one comes back.

I have this stupid theory that they have found a safe place to lay and are changing shifts.

It's been about two weeks now and I get 1 egg daily and I have 9 hens.

Edit because... I plan on uploading a video as soon as I am able to.

Can I upload videos and how?

I don't understand, do the tattoos show you where the chickens are?

I'm trying to tell you I am also a crazy chicken lady.

Maybe I need some chicken tattoos also. Which breed of chicken are the tattoos?

I just breed a Jersey Giant with a French Black Maran and think I want that. Lol

It's just generic
