welshchwcks Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I've only had Jemima and Dotty for one week nearly now but yesterday I was out in the garden and Jemima (buff orpington) kept coming up to me and clucking like mad. She looked like she was lokking up whilst clucking and crouching to the floor...she didn't look in pain. She did this for about half an hour! Dotty found a new hiding place under the hen house...so I'm wondering if this is a sign one of them is going to produce a yummy egg soon? What do you think, or am I looking into it too much ha ha....just desperate to get and egg, it's like waiting for the news a baby's been born ha ha!!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Crouching is definitely a sign . (She thinks you're a cockeral .) Are their combs getting bigger and redder too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshchwcks Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 Yeah Dotty's is. I thought she might have been laying under the hen house ....I'm obsessed ha ha! Great, well they've settled in well so hopefully very soon I will be on here with my fist egg info woo hoo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
