After giving evening treats I noticed my 11 week old boy lying chest down butt up, way up, I've never seen this before or read about it, so I'm a bit concerned. Is there something going on with him or just a random chicken thing he's doing?
 
I posted this in behaviors and egglaying because I don't know that it is an emergency, has anyone seen this or is it a symptom of something I should worry about?
 
If you walk up to him does he get up and run away normally? Is he otherwise healthy? If so, I wouldn't worry--it just might be a comfy position for him--especially if he just finished dust bathing

Everything seems normal but that and I had never seen it before, so I wanted to check. When I walk up to him he pops up and runs to me with the "food!" Look so ya know.
