[QUOTE="kerley, post: 1024194, member: 7335"] We are puzzled. Kathy has some yard chickens and guinea's. The are kept in the chicken house/ pen at nite and let out in the morning's. They have special places to them where they lay their eggs which Kathy collects each day. The guinea's have made a nest in the tall grass behind the chicken house where they have deposited approx. fourty eggs. The guinea hens take turns setting on the eggs during the day with one setting at nite.This morning all the eggs were gone. There was no mess or egg shells to be found. They just vanished during the nite. We have had opossum's, racoon's and on ocassion a skunk, which always eat on the spot and leave a mess, never just vanished eggs. I have noticed many squirrels which we have witnessed eating our peaches. So now that I have told this long winded story my question is....Would this egg thief be a SNAKE, and how many eggs can a snake eat at one time? Any one ever had this problem? [/QUOTE]
