I’m in northern Vermont with 7 month old chickens. 7 hens 1 rooster. My normally lovable, friendly hen has been acting strange the last couple of days. Normally free range chickens but we have snow and a couple days were extra cold so I made them stay in their coop. My assumption was she was getting picked on out of boredom but she doesn’t seem to be scared or cautious of them. She hasn’t laid an egg in 2 days but her vent looks clear and normal. As I’m not with her 24/7 I don’t know if she’s eating or drinking normal but when I throw out some scratch or give treats she’s not interested and just does her own thing.
Any advice is appreciated.
