Can't really tell if she's responding to the chicks when she stands up but its possible. As for the fluffing up, they do that to let air in between their feathers, its a way to stay warm (think down jacket). Losing their reddish colour is what happens as incubation goes along, they get rolled about and dust and bits of feathers and other unmentionables sometimes get stuck and the colour fades over time. Is it an indicator of imminent hatching, just by dint of the passage of time I'm afraid.
Short answer: its still a waiting game :)
