Oh my goodness, so many posts in the last few minutes!
Ok on the squatting. It is extremely characteristic. It's always a certain way. If they just duck or sit down, it's not a squat. If they are trying to waddle away from you as you pet them, even though they are low to the ground, it's not a squat. A true squat is easy to spot. The chicken freezes in her tracks, gets low to the ground and holds her wings out a little and stands very still. If you pet her, she doesn't move. I always give mine a good back scratch if they squat as I walk by them. Then they usually ruffle up their feathers and shake. When you look at them from above, they make kind of a heart shape with their wings. That's how you know.
Cheeka - it was chilly at the drive in last night. Some places in my state got FROST!
Clindz - I had to eat them early. About 10 weeks. Wasn't hardly anything on em but I had to because of the laws in these parts
