LOL! After mentioning just hours ago that there were no eggs, I just found one in the floor of the top cage. I had a feeling that something was up, because one of the hens had been hanging around that particular corner. The egg was perfectly intact, laid carefully on the cage grate. I'm not sure why she chose that spot rather than one of the two nests in their cage, but I gently picked up the egg, moved one of the nests to her chosen place, and put the egg in the nest. If there's another egg on the way, hopefully she'll put it in the nest this time. She and the male are studying the nest as I type. :-)
