Is this normal behavior for an orpington in winter? Last time she layed an egg is October 7 or so, and then she stopped and never laid a single egg again. She hatched on April 1 of this year and was laying steadily since the end of august. Starting at least a month or so she's been a bit puffed but always eating, drinking and doing chicken stuff normally. Now that it's winter she is one of the only ones in the flock who almost constantly stands on one leg. I have another pullet, a 24 week old amberlinks who's not laying yet, who also does this. I read that tucking her leg under her belly fluff means she's cold, but I haven't seen my other hens other than these two doing that, even though those hens are considered less hardy breeds. I'll attach some pictures. And again other than the puffing she acts like a chicken and has no other signs of potential sickness.
. Also I felt Orpington's crop and it's nice and full but not squishy/watery. Also not a single bloody/watery poop under the roosting bars.
