when I go in the yard they run to me & put there head down then spread there wings 1/2 way out . Looks like a submission thing or some thing. They won't let me be untill i pet them & rub there crop & stroke there comb. what is that? . I like it but wonder what started it? only the sex links bow. the leggerns & RiR come a running But the are not in love acting.

do you have a rooster? Your hens want to be mated, and they think you are gonna do it!

Give them a good backrub and they will shake it off and strut off. Try not to think about it what it really means to them too much...

If they aren't laying yet, that is a great sign that eggs are on the way soon!
