Hi azygous, what did Peppermint end up being?
I have a 11 week old Australorp pullet called Butter Grumbles who tidbits!
She has done this, like yours, since she was about 3wks old.
I worried she was a rooster but no wattles, light pink face, squats when I pet her and she had t lovely round feathers.
Would love to hear about Peppermint!
Hi. I just wanted to say if butter is squatting for you this mean SHE will be laying eggs very soon. After mine would squat the eggs came within a week to week and a half. ALL my hens STILL squat for me when they hear my voice or I walk up. By the squatting behavior I'd guess pullet. let us know and keep us posted. I'm guessing she will lay very soon
