Just getting my girls settled for the night. Roll on spar day. Their feather dressers has made them look a dreadful mess.

Poor Ruby.

I haven't read ahead but...
Can you look at her vent when she's doing this?
It looks to me as if she is trying to lay an egg. Sometimes, even if there is no proper egg on its way hens will do this. Something in their reproductive tract signals that an egg has been made and needs pushing down the tract.
If there is an egg, even if it hasn't been shelled yet, her vent will be moving as the muscles that move the egg downwards towards the vent expand and contract.
