Apoligies if this would be better in the sickness threads. We're in alabama so not very cold rn. For the past week its been like 40-70 degrees. One of our girls has been puffing up her feathers like she's cold, but no one else is doing it. She did it today and yesterday and it wasn't cold. She's acting completely normal otherwise for what i can see. does it at night when roostig too. could it be some illness or is she just weird?
 
Has she been molting recently? if so pin feathers could be bothering her. If not, something else could be irritating her skin, i'd pick her up for closer inspection.

No moulting, I'll take a look at her soon, idk how that didnt cross my mind
 
Went to check on her and she seemed physically fine, nothing odd. yknow the small little chirps chcikens will do before laying their eggs? idk how to describe it really or if it has a name but when i went out there she was stabding still, but near the flok making those little chirps
