Putting Leaves and Grass on her back?

Recommended Posts

Is this normal??

I've just watched as Gerty has laid her first egg of the day in the garden, in a nice sunny spot behind a leafy bush... At first I thought she was trying to cover up the egg, but she's walked away from the egg, stops every few steps to pick up a leaf, piece of grass, twig etc and places it on her back :shock: not sure whats she's up to? but she's been doing this for about 5 mins now... looks very comical.

If it's leaves and twigs, maybe it's a camouflage thing... I'm telling you, those chooks are up to something... camouflage on one hand, and on the other digging trenches... there's a war in the poultry world that we humans are unaware about... :wink:

 

Okie, Okie, maybe I watch too much tv
