Best Friends

[KatefromOz]

Hey everyone.
I have 3 hens and they are best friends. They do EVERYTHING together. The past couple of weeks all three of them head up to the laying box area when one of them lays an egg. They wait up there and then come back out as a group. It's a little strange but so cute! They also sun and take dust baths together. Anyone else's chickens do the same thing?

I have so many chickens that it's impossible for them to move as a group. I suppose there's safely in numbers, so yours all stick together. It does sound sweet.

Larger flock here too, some 'buddy' up and stick together, especially the younger set.

I guess it's different because I only have a small flock. It is sweet and interesting to observe their behaviour.
