I got 7 RI Red henss about a month ago, around 5 mos. old. From the beginning, one of them was always kind of a 'loner' and seemed a bit 'dumber' than the others? YESTERDAY when I went out to lock and feed, she was no where to be found.. but finally turned up behind the tarp covered hay bales looking at a puddle. She seemed entranced; just standing there and staring. It wasn't that dark yet.. so ?? I dunno. I FINALLY was able to grab her and put her in the pen with the others, but dispite available food, she just walked over the their bedding spot (with 1 other).
WHAT IS GOING ON? Is she gonna die or ?? Is she 'growing up' to become an egg layer? I'm flabbergasted. She also didn't seem interested in food this morning either and went on away from the others to forage. Or wander. She's weird. Is it early onset Alzheimer's?
