I have a weird Chicken

[pontoosuc]

We have 14 chickens, all 13 weeks old.

Every night my husband and I go out and let them come out of the enclosed run an hour before sunset to free range.

We've been doing this for several weeks, all birds go into the chicken house at about the same time once the sun sets.
Our chicken house is big and all seem to get along well.
The last 4 nights one of our Brahmas has decided to go into the chicken house but immediately choose a spot on the
floor immediately to the right of the outside door, but before going through the inside door into the roost/feed/water area.

She is so funny! I easily pick her up and put her inside the roost area and she if fine. Now it's like a little game each nite!!

love my birds!

Sounds like she just wants a little extra attention from you.

You could lock them in the run for a few days. When ever mine are not using the nesting boxes correctly, that is what I do, it resets their brains and habits.

My Lil' Bit waits by the door of the coop each night for me to put her on a roost. She's partially blind and can't see well enough to jump up on one by herself. If she sees me coming she'll come running to me, but most nights I know to find her just to the left of the door.

it seems that most of the birds have their little personalities. I love every one of them!
thank you for input.
