Our free spirit chicken Elsie lays her egg behind a bush next to the fence near the back door everyday. When we get back from our morning doggy walk our cocker spaniel dives into the bush and retrieves the egg ...very soft mouth doesn't crack it Very useful in a not so easy place to reach However if Elsie is still sitting when our dog dives in there is hell to pay !! Such a noise from Elsie you wouldn't believe !!!!!

I've never heard of that before! What a bright dog you have! Wow!

When I die I will slide in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand and chocolate in the other, screaming, "Whooo hooo! What a ride!" as life is to be enjoyed to the fullest!

Mine have taken to retrieving the eggs for personal consumption.
The run stays closed to mid day now...

She's not only bright but she only has one more leg than a chicken and is also a bionic dog(due to road accident last year ) ...she's our little treasure !!!!

She sounds lovely - you must post a photo of her when she's on her egg run!
