Chick acting weird..

[mysticrose]

I have one of my chicks that keeps lay down on her side. She gets up and runs around but will lay down on her side. This has been going on for a dew days. I don't see labored breathing, or any injuries. Could thus just be weird chick behavior? She is eating and drinking just fine also. The other 5 are all running around and acting normally.

Any ideas would be great thank you.

I have a couple chicks that have done that since they were 2 days old and still do it now. They are 6 weeks. They even do it when they roost on me, so I think it's just weird chick behavior. nothing to worry about if they are active and eating normal.

If shes eating, drink and breathing normally then I would say shes fine just lying down strangely. Just monitor her behavior for now

Normal behavior. They like to stretch out on there side especially when they are young.
