Mollie333 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 So i came home after stopping over at a friends house.. To find my new girl lying down in the Dust Bath, like this.. I was so frightened, from a distance she looked DEAD! But on futher inspection the little girl hopped up at the sound of the camera shutter and carried on rolling around in the dust bath in the sun.

Lavenders_Blue Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Mine do that too. The first time my mum saw them dustbathing, but totally still she whispered nervously... 'I think one of your hens looks ill, is she dead?' No mum, they do that all the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckmum6 Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 That's just what my chicks did the first time they dust bathed, they also had trembly legs. I thought they had a neurological problem (began to worry), but it was just high chicken ecstasy!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
