What does it mean when you reach in to pat your hen and she lowers herself with her wing half spread? Is that because she thinks I am the roo and she is submitting to be bred? My free range hens dont do that for their roo, so I was curious! She has lived alone because anyone I put her with pick on her. She is the little pyncheon I had brought back from the brink of death on 2 occasons and has been all better for more than 6 months so I tried to put her with a small pyncheon roo, but she wanted no company at all!
 
Raised by herself, she regards you as her rooster, and she is ready for love. Or the chicken facsimile therof.
 
Well, she must be in love with me because in the last 3 days, she has gifted me with 2 eggs! LOL....if only they were fertile! I hope I can get her to like the little pyncheon roo a friend gave me because they each have such a nice personality and love to chatter with me when they see me!
