Off topic, But are your chickens black Stars/ black sex links? I had a few black star hens for a while and they were great chickens.Believe it or not chickens like to get on things. You might try providing roosts at different heights and give them different things to roost on. My youngsters thought this sturdy box was the coolest thing ever. Give your chicken something slightly higher than your waterer and see if that stops her. Also make sure the pen she is in is clean. If she is living on wire provide an area where she can get relief from the wire. (Secured cardboard works well-once it's dirty you can toss it) If she has a dirt floor to scratch around in make sure it is clean and dry. If not-give her other roosts close to the ground. 2 x 4 secured by building blocks work well. Hope this helps
