What a happy girl! Super cute names, by the way.I think I have the reverse. Theo(dora is named for the chocolate bar company) the chocolate orpington rushes out the gate into our outer pen every morning to do laps of run-flaps. She is constantly rushing up to other hens to try to get them to join the joy of run-flaps. I'd say it was dominance behavior, rushing up to the others, but Theo is near the bottom of the upper tier bird pecking order, and just seems to want others to run with her. Usually she can get Cookie and Biscuit to join her, and sometimes Pudding. Fudge is busy pretending she's too dignified, and the 5 year olds Becky and Lucia are busy sitting on my shoes trying to convince me to offer treats. The lavender orps are too busy being intimidated by the excitement to join. Theo usually has to spend at least several minutes run-flapping to be ready for breakfast.
I'm pretty sure Poppy would absolutely hate Theo.
