Before laying an egg a hen will sing and dance. At Rikki's hen groups will line up and help each other sing while they take turns, one at a time, laying their egg in a dog house. www.RikkisRefuge.org

  • i have got those exact two chickens we calll the ginger on ginger and the whiite one phsco cause it killed another chicken

  • Is it a white sussex? :) Love it btw :)

  • Awesome chicken! is it a delaware?

  • i i i i lay an EGG i i i i i lay an EGG

  • Also, the laying is not painful. Their bodies are built for it. They lay through their cloaca... the avian poop-chute.

    They fairly regularly drop little lawn presents as large as their eggs. These are soft... The only way they come out that large, instead of extruding like a long thin worm... eww... is that the cloaca can open that far with very little resistance.

    Egg-laying machines!

  • I've never known them to cluck before laying, and they're dead silent while laying, [probably not wanting to attract predators while they are vulnerable] but they give this call after laying, or while another hen is laying.

    I've always wondered why, I figure 3 possibilities; they are trying to draw predators away from their nest of eggs, the trait was selected for by humans wanting to know when an egg has been laid, or they are calling any broody hens to come and sit on them.

  • Ooohhh I got to lay a egg eggg

  • are you sure they are crying in pain? Those things are pretty big when they come out. yikes!

  • They always say old ladies tend 2 sound a bit like chickens LOLZ ;P

  • yeah euhm, thats the song they make when they lay'd an egg not about to lay an egg
