It's funny cause when he dances for that hen she does it right back and when he mates her she gets mad and tries to do it back to him... She's bossy and independent haha I just get annoyed when shes annoyed with him in the way. His lady has been gone for a long time now since she was broody and hatched babies and is still taking care of them. Thanks for responding back so quickly.It's a trait some birds have, the males are showing the females an appropriate nesting place. I think there's some courting element.."Look what a good provider I am, I found this perfect spot for you to lay eggs and raise our children".
My hens never seemed that impressed, they just kind of tolerated the behavior and then the were "Would you get out of here already and let me get down to business!".
