Roo's Shake Their Heads Side to Side when They See Me ?

[blackhens]

I have two Orpington roosters. When I arrive with food and water for them, sometimes they shake their entire head and neck from side to side when they see me coming. Any idea what that means?

"be careful"

Mine does that sometimes. Usually means he's feeling testy and he's much more likely to act like a he wants to go to freezer camp.

Yes, be careful of them. Don't turn your back. They are trying to intimidate you.
