Hens scratch once, then twice don't they? Or is it the other way around?

<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> ,Do you mean in a V shape ? I believe all birds tend to do that , Gobblers are known to scratch at the bases of trees...BT

I like them with Long Sharp Spurs....

BT,
I was referring to the rhythm. Hens will scratch first once with one foot, then twice with the other. It just makes for a more natural rhythm when that ol' boy is hung up.

Yep,Like B.B. said they'll do it both ways.

RE: I've confused myself.
 

OK, I stand corrected. I'll bow to the experts. I know when I'm whupped. That's why I asked in the first place. The main thing is the 1-2 or 2-1 cadence. They don't scratch 3, 4 or 5 times, right? At least not routinely. Just trying to dust off an old trick and throw some more info out for the newbies.
