Rooster like hen

[GoYaya]

Hi Guys! I have a two year old barnyard mix hen who will breed my ladies. I do not have a rooster and she is a hen for sure. She has raised chicks

and we get an egg from her everyday. Does anyone know why she does this? She is also the leader of my flock.

It's a dominance thing. I've had roosters mount roosters.
