I have 3 black australorp pullets and 1 black australorp/rhode island red cockerel. All are from the same clutch and have grown up together and are about 3 months old now. They live in a 96 sqft enclosed run, so they have plenty of space. These past two nights, one of our pullets has been sleeping separately from the other chickens. Normally they all sleep on their specially made roosting perch, but this one has been sleeping on top of this other structure we made to shelter them from typhoon winds (sorta like a coop, but more of a storm shelter). It is situated higher than the roosting perch, so maybe that's relevant. Also, I noticed in the morning when I feed the chickens that one of our pullets is kinda distant from the others. The other three go right at the feeder, but this one follows me around while I clean up their poop. I'm honestly not sure if it is the same pullet as the one sleeping apart from the others, though.
Should I be worried? Is there anything I can do? I've placed the pullet onto the roosting perch with the others these past 2 nights.
