New flock | one chicken not moving, eating or drinking

I think she's just spooked due to being in a new place. I bet she'll improve once she is settled in and comfy.

Thank you! Yes I agree, she is now eating like a champion and all good. I am so attached to them already I would hate for her to be in pain! But seems like she is good now

Glad to hear things are looking up!

Thank you! She is very different to my other chickens. She is slower and not as tame. Maybe just her personality!

She is so much better now. I gave her some calcium and give her an abdomen massage and she laid a HUGE egg. Thank you for everyone's help!

I am certainly no expert (my girls are only about 3 months old), but I have a Cochin who kind of does her own thing and seems a little slow to pick up on things. Except food. She is the first to try any new goodies I offer them. At first, I thought there was something wrong with her, but I think it is just her personality. Physically, she looks great. She is def not the brightest of the flock, and I am willing to bet she ends up last in the pecking order. But I do keep a close eye on her, just in case I'm missing something... 'cause I'm a noob.

Haha I am the exact same, and when I go to work I call my partner every hour or so to make him check too! She is eating and drinking and now laying (finally) so I think she is just a bit slower. She's the biggest in the flock though - she's enormous! Strange haha
