Snowy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 That sounds like it might be crouching Debbie - they certainly get tamer as they come into lay, so the fact that she approached your daughter is a good sign! Also, when they crouch they stick their elbows out, quiver and do a little tap dance with their feet. When you have finished stroking them they fluff themselves up and have a good shake before going about their business again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Sounds like it Debbie! She should be laying eggs for you within the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
