Hi, this is my first time posting here, hopefully you all can help. Yesterday I added 4 new 3 month old hens to my tiny flock (originally had two 8 month old bantam hens). The 4 babies were in a coop someone made from a hutch, so never outside or really moved anywhere. She still had a heat lamp on them. So with the big change they probably already have shock from that, but now one of my new Rhode Island reds is acting a bit strange. Won't move when I touch her, I place her in the coop so my dogs can go out and she goes bat crazy jumping and hitting her head off the top. Was kind of freaky to watch. She didn't seem sick when I had them quarantined for a short time berore intoducing to my new ones, so I'm at a loss of what is wrong. Is this normal when chickens get such a darastic change? Have any ideas what it could be??
