Eggs again

When I went back out yesterday there were ten eggs under the tree. The Internet told me to put them in water to test them, and since they all sank to the bottom I boiled them and fed them to the kids. Haven't had any complaints, although one soiled diaper today smelled like something that had died. But there was only one egg in the coop instead of two. I thought "Oh no, now another one has found a hiding place."

I went out and looked under the tree just now and there were no eggs. Great, I thought. She's on to me. But then I looked in the coop and there were three eggs, one of them in the first nest box that they stopped using during the broody bantam debacle. Silly chicken.
