It's most likely a normal shed cycle. It's definately too early for a pre lay shed, and I've never personally heard of a female growing follicles and then going through the whole egg laying process without being bred (If I'm wrong, someone please correct me). With them just having started breeding, you.re going to have some time to wait before you see ovulation or a pre lay shed. And I wouldn't put any stock in the cool seeking behavior at the moment. Some balls just do that on occasion. Markus Jayne has a pretty good pictorial time line of the breeding process on his website if you'd like to look at it for info.
