Thank you ddawn , I've never bothered to observe pre-lay behavior , and its really both entertaining and educating . This EE had some ruffled feathers where the wings would cover if not cropped [ she's pretty flighty ] but has lost the ruffled look . The CX pullets are not always willing to remain squatted for a lighter cockeral , and they were not bred with long life or reproduction in mind . Leg injury is a possibility with them ; but so far , so good .
