This is odd.

I just walked out to the coop to lock it for the night. I counted the chickens, and everything was normal. I checked the roosts and then I looked toward the nesting boxes and there was a rooster sleeping in it!! Cullen was sitting there, looking like a hen brooding! Has anyone else's rooster done this??

He could be tired of sleeping on the roosting pole, mine likes to sleep on a flat surface to.

sometimes my rooster does that too. i'm not sure why tho. i either think the reason is that he is tired or the hens that arent sitting arent sharing the space hahaha

but im pretty sure he's not gunna hatch an egg!

that would be weird

That would be cool! I could imagine him walking around the yard with little chicks trailing him

Maybe the girls are made at him and kicked him out of the "bed" for the night
