I went out this am and all the chickens came running like always, except one hen. I of course freaked out (I have hawks which I lost 3 babies too, another story for later). I am so worried, my Hen who is definitely showing all the signs I have read about is acting very lethargic and did not come out to eat her morning snack with the other chickens (which trust me is not normal). She is under the bushes where they hang out (free range), not in the coop. I have had the worry that this is where they will lay, because this is where they are most of the time during the day (hawk protection and cool) She won’t be alone there, except when others are eating away from there.
I am praying that this might be normal and she is not getting sick from something. She looks like her normal self, healthy.
Am I just being a worried mom or has anyone else had this issue or seen or noticed?
Please someone help me calm down, because I am freaking out (
