Visible crew/equipment: When the chicks are running loose in the living room, and Lucy, Little Ricky, Fred and Ethel are trying to corral them, you can see the chicken wire and braces set up to keep the chickens on the set. (00:20:20)
Other mistake: In the first scene when Ricky staggers down the stairs and on his way to work it's supposedly first thing in the morning but the hands on the Grandfather clock are at 12 Noon/Midnight. (00:00:45)
Continuity mistake: When Lucy and Ricky are discussing the dance at the beginning of the episode and she turns away from him after she tells him "that's all there is to it," however in the next shot she is still facing towards him.

Continuity mistake: When Fred the dog runs onto the couch with Ricky's speech he goes to the right side of the couch and puts his head under a pillow. The shot changes and he is now on the other side of the couch.
Chosen answer: It's not known. She may have moved it to the spare room or it may be in a corner just off camera. There could be any number of reasons, though it probably took up too much room on the studio set, and it was removed, making it easier for the actors to move around.
