Where's the eggs?..

Well....either our piggies Richard and Vicky are eating the chicken eggs......or.....the chickens are mulching on them! I vote for the chicken. There were five eggs this morning.....by noon they have vanished. This has been a issue for the past week. Our pigs can't access the coop. That leaves me with just one exclamation.......

There's a chicken cannibal within the flock!
A chicken will eat a egg for whatever reason. This could become an issue if the chicken ends up liking eggs. It is also a learned habit by other chickens..if the others see the cannibalism....they may follow suit. Some farmers say it's a lack of calcium or improper living space.

So....the ol pepper trick will be played out. Taking a few eggs and breaking them into a dish....I'll add a ton of black pepper to the mix. Placing that dish of egg dinner.....on the floor of the coop for that chicken cannibal to get a surprise. The end result will be that the diabolic chicken will think all the eggs will taste like pepper. If not....
Farmer Deno will cannibalized him!
