Our roosters are doing the same thing( new behavior) so I came on here to see if it was common and I'm at ease knowing it apparently is.
Maybe because it's almost spring and the girls are getting more broody? Just an idea!
The only good thing about them getting broody or hormonal is that they are extra sweet and want to be held more than usual. We love giving them love. Lol!

Well my hen is broody right now and was looking for a place to lay her eggs. I just built a home made nesting area . I watch she did not like the nest close to the ground she flew to the middle nesting area. She settle down the rooter came in talking to her. She got out of the nest and he went in and would not let her in she went out side and he stay in the nest. So what is up wiith that?
