I believe this hen was more interested in food than showing off her beautiful speckled feathers. In fact I doubt that she is even aware of her appearance but what do I know about the chicken world. I am just imagining that she is strutting her stuff because she is a stand out in the hen house. Does she attract more attention from the other hens or just from the humans? It's just some idle pondering on my part.
