Hello everyone, thanks so much for the warm welcome! I think I will post some pictures of the ladies, next time!! Pics are always fun! And I have news... one of my kids reported to me that when she went to pet a chicken this afternoon, it squatted!!! So I said, "ooohh!! thats good news- show me! "and indeed, every time she was petted she sat there in a low squat! :) Now, she couldn't catch any other ones, and I'm not into chasing the chickens...so she could just be the only one. It's our most developed one, a Buff Orpington. She has a nice red comb and big red lobes.(is that called a wattle?)

How long do you think until she lays??? Still hasnt given any attention to the boxes AT ALL so I picked her up and gentle put her into it, twice. She stayed a minute or so each time.

Thanks for any input- also if there is a better place to post this question?
Thanks!!!
