What do you mean, they're "acting ready"? How can you tell?

Combs get redder, they start squatting, digging around in the nest boxes, practicing the egg song-

Thanks for all the encouragement!! I knew my BYC friends would understand the excitement!!

What do you mean, they're "acting ready"? How can you tell?

Just as joletabey said, big red combs, checking out the nest boxes, lots of big girl clucking and that super funny squatting. I couldn't imagine what the squatting would look like, but as soon as I saw it I knew what it was. At first I thought an egg would fall out right then!!

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of the week will bring!!
