I think Hannah has gone broody. She's been sitting on an egg for a day now, and she ran out of the coop this morning for a quick feed and dirtbath - which is classic behaviour (as the egg cannot be left for longer than a few minutes). So we could have another Pebbles in about 22 days! It depends on whether she sticks out the three weeks or not - many hens abandon the egg after a while.
LATER: Spotted the little minx happily pottering in the garden and found a stone cold egg abandoned in the coop. Ah well. I guess she doesn't have the staying power yet!
