My buff Polish Girl is about to lay her second egg I think. I was out cleaning the coop and had the door open for them to go rummage around the yard and in the trees like they love to do. Daisy came back to the coop and scratched around the nest boxes making a racket, she would act like she was about to lay...in came Onslo my rooster, he saw that she was fussing and it seemed to set off some kind of "expectant father" gene in him or something. He went from nest box to nest box and made little circular nests for her, he scratched and fussed and made a big deal out of it. He did the Look look look sound he does when he finds them a treat after each nest. She would come check it out, lay down for half a second and then get up and fuss again. He would try again and lay down in the nest himself trying to get her in with him. Is this normal? I had no idea roosters did this kind of thing, I'm still new to the whole chicken thing. Anyway, she started acting like he was beginning to tick her off and she went out of the coop but would come right back in and start over again. I just think it's so sweet of him to be doing this, but whats he going to be like when all his ladies start laying? I think he will take off for the local sports bar when that happens...lol
I just was curious if anybody else has a crazy rooster like me.
