Hen submitting to ME!!!!!

[Chickassan]

No time table from squat to omlettes i'm very sorry to say. But you CAN make a V with your fingers, put the base of your hen's tail in the crotch of the V and jiggle your V side to side. Remove your V from the tail, your hen will now get up and shake. You have just become a rooster....congrats! Or should I say cocka doodle ewwww! Follow my instructions or risk tripping on randy hens, you have been warned!

Can you elaborate a little?

 

[Chickassan]

Perhaps. Ok, once your hens squat for you they're showing that they consider you their rooster. Hens get "randy" and will squat in your path and you'll trip. Hence giving the hens the V or "spocking" the hens satisifies the randy and saves you a trip to the ground.

You should get an egg within the next five days.

If you're right i'm going to hire you to time hen squats.

And here's me thinking some of my girls just wanted a pat!

I just give them a good vigorous scratching right in front of the tail. If they walk off and give a good shake, I know I was satisfactory!

I don't mind being their rooster, better than being the hen...

One of my girls squats for the dog, lol! Whenever they do it for me, I give them some nice back scratches or seize the opportunity to pick them up and give them some snuggles

lol I was thinking that's what you meant but your choice if words took my mind way somewhere else!

2 of my girls only started squatting AFTER their first egg on Sunday my 3rd girl is not ready, and still punk in the face. Hopefully it will be soon.

I have been attentive to their needs I think but we shall see.

My hen did this to my dog and laid her first egg the next day. A few days later, she did it to me.
