That hen, I mean!! She is one of my two sweet/friendly girls but goodness!!@#, she sure can make a fuss. She likes the end box to lay in and if someone is in (HER) nest when she needs to lay she makes a fuss! Does not even look at the other boxes. lol I have runnnn out there because I thought something got into the coop and found her angry as all get out screeeeching and giving the invador dirty looks from the perch outside the coop! I tell you folks! This bird has cried wolf one too many times and I will not be running out there this time to check on them. Hope everyone is fairing well in the ice storm.!
Yep, got one of those hens too. Make you think the world of predators is at their doorstep. Gotta love em. You stay safe too.
Quote:My Dominique did the same thing yesterday! She made such a big fuss until I had to check and see what the problem was.....another hen was in her spot. After she claimed her spot and sat for several minutes....would ya know she did even lay an egg! ugh! All that carryin' on for nuthin'.
Goodness - my littlest - Silver Chick - makes the LARGEST noise. She will pull other hen's combs to get them out of "her" box and scream like a monster is eating her.
My loudmouth is Big Bad Betty. I have an Edna, too, but she is my Special Edna (she's handicapped), a Cochin, and quiet and sweet. Seems like when one loudmouth changes personality (or leaves the flock) another one steps up to fill that role.
