Thanks, Bob. Excellent summary. I actually wish people wouldn't call it the egg song as it really isn't. In my all hen flock my Beta does escort duty & some of my girls are rowdier than others. One or 2 never call for an escort & sometimes we have *group hugs* where a gaggle will go all together.

Behaviors in all hen flocks are so interesting to me. Somehow they organize themselves without the rooster just fine. Very adaptable animals. Thanks for the kind words.
