Extreme shift in flock dynamics

Do you have multiple feed and water stations, preferable set up so that a bird at one station can't see the birds at the other?

Yes ma'am, 2 feeders completely out of line of sight, same with 2 waterers

Strange that she's not making use of them.

When I've seen her come out she looks down right paranoid, like she saw a predator, they are port feeders so I think she's weary of not being able to see what's coming, idk. One of the waterers is right by the pop door and she pops out takes a couple sips then splits

Interesting update: I went out to do my chicken chores after work and Betty was still in the coop, she came out to greet me a bit more relaxed than the last few days, and started scratching about being her normal self. Delilah (the orp) came running towards her, Betty's hackles went up and there was a quick scuffle and Delilah retreated. I'm hoping this is the beginning of the end of all this ridiculousness. There is definitely some kind of power trip going on
