Doing lofts this morning and noticed a hen raised like when covering egg had a look and a baby around 4 days old in there, now these eggs where not supposed to hatch until next week so cannot explain other egg was smashed on floor and mom was covered in yolk etc so obviously fighting in there, I'm asking could this one egg got smashed and the baby survived and that would explain things

Are your nest boxes open at the front or fairly well closed in?

Fully open mate

Thought I had killed him.
He's okay, but he is not happy with me.

That is one thing I dread they always seem to put there head under your foot, I have trod on feet that's bad enough must feel like the whole world falling on em when I do fatty as I am , glad he ok though sure he will forgive you in time

Cannot believe it had to ring the youngster today and really struggled to get it on, even if it hatched last monday that would still only make it 7 days old today
