Thanks all...
Got up this morning at 5:30am in the hopes to catching her laying the fourth egg....sat there, phone in hand, recording footage right up to 8am....I was extremely quiet and sat really still, making no noise at all...but no egg was forthcoming.
Either she is finished laying at just three eggs, or she sensed my presence in the shed and didn't lay? I'd be annoyed at myself if I put her off...that is not how it should go!!! I won't bother her again just in case.
Is it possible though that this is it?
I noticed she was sitting on the eggs the majority of the day yesterday, and also since 5:30 she has been sitting on them constantly, only getting up to leave for a few short minutes at a time. So, could she be incubating?
