Wooden Nest Eggs | A Pair

Description

Our recommended choice.

  • These are full, natural size hens eggs.
  • 70mm long x 46mm in diameter.
  • Painted over the wood for a very smooth finish and are most consistent to real eggs.
  • Sold in pairs.

These are the brood or fake eggs we like to use at Appletons.

Keep a pair in the nest box to encourage your hens where to lay.

We recommend investing in some false eggs. Very handy to have for a few reasons! We place them in the laying boxes when pullets are POL (point of lay) to encourage them to lay in the nest boxes. Hens will go and lay where there is usually an egg or two so having a pair of fake eggs permanently in the nest box/es is a good idea. Collect the fresh eggs daily and leave the fake eggs as an indicator to your hens. Slipping some wooden eggs under a broody hen to keep her sitting is another reason to have a pair...and fake eggs are solid so cannot be pecked at... collect fresh eggs often, to reduce the risk of hens eating eggs.
