Default Any day now ???

We'll have had the girls for 3 weeks tomorrow and Roxy one of the pepperpots, has got redder wattles and top thingy overthe past 10 days, shes also crouching when I go to pet her - Im told this is her expecting a visit from cockrel (me!). Today whilst tidying up the eglu, I noticed she seemed to be flexing her vent - a bit like chicken .pelvic floor excercises. Are these the signs that an egg is to be expected??

Maisie and pippa are showing none of these signs, just roxy.

I havent put much bedding in the nest box, as they seem to just use the roosting bars, should I put some in now just in case?
