Heh...kinda like how a kid'll fall down and just sit looking surprised until Mom makes a fuss...then they'll bust out sobbing.
Is Puffy the one that hogs the nest box, too?

LOL! Exactly. It was kinda funny, I hate to say...because I knew it didn't hurt him. He's just tired...gets really cranky and overly sensative in the evening.
Naw, that's Benny Hen. She seems better though and I wonder if perhaps she wasn't having a bit of a broody spell...where they think they can hatch out the eggs. She doesn't do it as bad as she used to.
Puffy is the one that doesn't lay an egg every day...I though she was sick, but apparently she just takes longer to process an egg! She'll lay one in the morning and not lay another one till the next day in the evening! Oh well, she lays great big old eggs, though...almost completely round and they are our only speckled eggs.
