So this just started recently when I let them out. I will not find her till it's time to roost! Why is she being strange. She acts like she doesn't want to be near my rooster.

She might be starting to get broody looking for a nice nesting site away from the flock.

I'm thinking it might be my neighbors yard lol! I see her coming from their place.

Oh dear! That would be unfortunate as you need to move her and her clutch to a safe place as soon as she wants to spend the night sitting on them.

Maybe go over and take a look...
