I've noticed mine do it all the time, for example, they are all in a group pecking away on the grass, then one of them might stop and sit down, so then another and another, then one might start preening so the next one does it, and before you know they are all preening.
One might go to the water bucket, so does another, so then the rest think, 'Oh I might do that as well.' and so it goes.
I only have 5 hens but they tend to go around in a group, very rare do you see one doing it's own thing, if it does it soon joins the others.
