Patiently waiting their turn
My sister has this cane planter basket which sits on top of her BBQ. This is where her chooks like to lay their eggs. They line up making a racket while they wait their turn in the basket. Sometimes they just can't wait any longer and drop their egg right where they're standing. Sometimes they even go inside the house and lay them among the old newspapers my sister keeps stacked up on top of the antique freezer box or in the kids beds. Anywhere nice and cosy will do. It's a bit like chook peek hour. The one that happens to be in the basket gets annoyed by the racket the others make as they demand she makes her lay a snappy one. They even go so far as to jump on the side of it and start pecking at her if she takes too long.
