Question about 14wk pullet behaviour

[aldarita]

It doesn't matter how many nice, big dirt dusting containers you make for them, they make their own craters and sometimes right next to the one you made for them. It's like the nests, they have to be the perfect ones right to their specs

 

[My Very First 6 Chickens]

The first time I found mine dust bathing, I thought they were dying, kind of having spasms all stretched out in this hole, one leg kind of moving, as flat as they could possibly get. I think I shrieked and they all jumped up, shook themselves off and went on about their business, looking at me like I was nuts.

SAME! I i thought my chicken was having a seizure, and when i seen a sunbathing chicken for the first time, i thought she died too, lmao!!

Is she in a sunny spot? If so she could just be relaxing in the sun

Not really

She wasn't throwing dirt or writhing around. Just moving. Her booty around like snuggling into the hole.

She's a teenager, practicing what hens do when they're nesting. You know how children play with dolls and pretend house? That's what she's doing. Enjoy!

Thank you. I kind of felt like she's getting ready to give us some some pretty eggs. Next Monday 15wks old.
