I am a complete newbie to forums as i am to looking after my own 3 chickens, Here's my Q,s.
I have in the last 3 days purchased 3 young chickens, I believe all are approx 15 week old. I have a Warren, a light Sussex and a White Silkie. All seems to be normal with exception to the Silkie, It does not move. if you move it to any position in the run, coop or perch it just stays there for hours. I have only seen it take a few steps towards water and feed. It would seem to be seriously depressed or completey lazy. Is this normal for any chicken? or should i really be concerned?
