Don't know, I have always had a rooster. The ducks were awful though.

My does go into the cage with the buck because she will be dominant and kill him if he comes to visit her. They generally let him know they are receptive by mounting him, and it is funny to watch her attempt at motion.
In the end, he gets the job done, and both just lie there resting and seeming to enjoy each others company. Sometimes I expect to look in and see them smoking.
Haha

Cracking up reading this thread!Turkeys & geese do it too.
I know a lady, she absolutely loves her chickens and turkeys. She has probably around ~40 chickens and they all have names. She is always talking about her "sweet" turkey hen who lays down every time someone walks near her and loves it when people pet her

That's hilarious @Goat Whisperer ....we had some hens without a rooster a while back and 1 of those hens would squat every time ya stepped close to her and wouldn't move until ya shook her 2-3 times...she'd walk off and ruffle her feathers........I just couldn't imagine a turkey hen...would have to give a 2handed "Shake" I guess....

Our hens run to us, swarm around our feet to the point of stumbling over them, and squat. We, being the alpha rooster, stroke their backs and squeeze their tail at the base. After a moment, they stand up, ruffle out their feathers and smoke a cigarette.

I don't think they have the life span required to get cancer from smoking... I could be wrong.
