Stop your hens eating their own eggs

Submitted by Marlene

Stop your hens eating their own eggs by finding out which nest the offending hen uses. Take one or more of its eggs and 'blow' it.

Then fill it with a mixture of another egg plus pepper and carefully pour it back into the original 'blown' egg. Seal the end with wax to stop the contents ozzing out.

Put this egg into the nest where the offending chicken lays. When eaten it will put the hen off eating eggs for life.

Great idea Comments By: Sue
I think this might work!! I've just "blown" an egg and I have added black pepper AND curry powder to the contents. I will get a small syringe from the Vet and put it all back in tomorrow. In the meantime, I have left the egg contents to get nice and rotten. Can't wait to see if this works.
