Hey there! I’m wondering, is it usual for an older hen to stay on the roost most of the day? In the morning, our hen, Yuki, a 4 year old Easter Egger, has been staying basically staying on the roost in her coop all day. The other 2 that are the same age (an Australorp and an Orpington) have fairly similar behaviors but come down sometimes. We’ll put her by the food to let her eat, and make sure she gets water, but when we come back she’s on the roost again. Is this normal?
