    What does the squat and wing spread mean?

    I just like that their submissive behavior makes it easier to catch them. Last night when I went out to close their door for the night, 5 of the 7 chickens came running out to see me. I may have them a little too spoiled. Whenever they see me, or hear me, they come running because I often bring...

    What does the squat and wing spread mean?

    I've just been scooping her up and carrying her around. Maybe she'll learn that being submissive just means that I'm going to carry her around treat her like a pet rather than...whatever it is that chickens like to think they are. Mine are definitely pets though, people keep asking if we're...

    What does the squat and wing spread mean?

    I do like it, mostly I like that she'll come up to me like this and let me pick her up. I never would have guessed that chickens could be such sweet and fun pets. Now I find myself looking forward to nice weather (like we're having the past few days - finally back into the 60's!!) so I can go...

    What does the squat and wing spread mean?

    My EE (Hawkface - my avatar pic) has started this behavior over the past couple weeks. Whenever I get close to her, or when she comes up to me, she squats down and spreads her wings out a little. Nothing else really changes, she keeps talking the way she had been, she's just squatted down with...
