I have 16 chickens and one of them hangs out in the coop on the roost most of the time during the day while the rest are out ranging. Is this unusual? She is healthy and lays almost every day. I never see anyone picking on her. Anyone have any thoughts about this?

Even tho she's not picked on, tho it can be very subtle, she may be low bird.
Observing them while they are going to roost for a few nights might tell you more.
Some birds can just be loners too.
