She is 5 months old; I've had her for 2 months. This just started today while I watched her eat and drink at breakfast. I have 7 chickens and she is the only one doing this. No chickens have been added to the flock. Eating and drinking is normal. Bedding is pine shavings and was replaced two days ago. No signs of discharge, abnormal poos, or odd behaviors other than this. Is there anything I should do or watch for?

She's on the far left.

I think that she simply aspirated some water. Were they completely out of water before this started? She may have been very thirsty and drank rapidly to avoid the larger hen.
Yes, they finished their water during the night and I'd just refilled it. It's mid-afternoon now though and she's still doing it on occasion.
