O.k., I just went out to the coop. It's 7:30 and not dark yet and the buff ladies were milling around in the run. I opened the big coop door and sat in the entry where they could see me. Sure enough, Maisie (who always was the only terribly skittish one who always ran away from everyone) came up into the coop. I reached out and she IMMEDIATELY SQUATTED, AND THEN PUT HER TAIL FEATHERS IN THE AIR. I have her a nice rub on the back near her bum and when I stopped she stood and fluffed her feathers!
So...the first squat this morning was not just some fluke I am thinking. She had NEVER done it before and now twice today.
I betcha OUR FIRST EGG WILL BE ANY DAY!!!!!!
