My poor silkie is acting weird.

I have 4 silkies, one of them is a rooster.

One of them is an all white hen, which has an extremely large crown. (Going to fix that soon)..
The rooster started to attempt to breed with the hen, and she's been acting strange.
She doesn't seem to want to walk anymore, and she continues to lie down on the ground and droop her head.
Is something wrong, or is this normal?
 
Normally a chicken would go back to pecking and scratching or what ever it was doing before mating. Did the behavior start as a result of the mating or before?

After my rooster started to try to mate with her for the first time, this behavior started on the second day, which is today. (My silkies are 17 weeks by the way)
So it started as a result of the mating actions.
