I am brand new to chickens but have spent a couple years reading up on them before diving into this. I have 6 reds and 3 easter eggers all 5 week old pullets. For a couple days one EE, owlie, he is the largest bird of them all has been acting oddly. it stays off by itself, if other birds are in the run he goes into the coop. at night he stays out of the pack. when come and say "who wants grapes" thy all go nuts and flock to me except owlie. he stays off by himself. I just took him out and examined him, eyes clear, butt clear, be he appeared to be shivering little.i tried to hand feed him a grape and he took a few laps but clearly wasn't interested. can anyone give any advice or at least put me at ease?
thanks
