Wagging

[godzillaandfriends]

Hello chicken enthusiasts!
I was just watching my sweet Vader and I saw her wag her tail.
People say they do it right after being bred, but we have no rooster.
Any idea on why they're doing it?
It's only our hen, Vader. She has an "adopted" chick.

She’s just doing it to shake her tail feathers out, no biggie. I have a hen named Vader too! Mine is a cuckoo maran, what is yours?

Hens wag their tails just because. Or after they're preening themselves.

An Australorp! She is very beautiful and sweet.
