Hello everyone! I am completely new to all things poultry. I have wanted chickens all my life and finally got 6 New Hampshire reds. They are a couple of months old now and sort of in that gangly stage, but seem to be doing well. I noticed one of them is acting odd the past week though. She has been digging up a spot in the grass and will lay down or she will just lay down and kick a leg out and then sort of roll to her side. I inspected her, there are no injuries and she is up and around with the other 5 hens acting totally normal. It's just that she is doing this laying down on her side thing. It's not like she lays on her side the whole time mind you, but she will dig down into the grass and then lay down and sometimes lay to her side or kick a leg out. Is that normal or should I be concerned?
Thanks a bunch,
