Hello
My chickens are POL and just got my first few eggs! Not sure who they are from yet. THis afternoon my wife entered our coop and one of the Barred Rocks was nested in the hay with a wing spread. THe BR also did not move away like she usually does , and like the rest of our 7 chickens do when we enter the coop. Tonight when I went out to close up the coop she was still in the same spot on the floor. She has roosted every other night that I know of. It seems too coincidental to have just gotten an egg and her exhibiting this new behavior. Is this normal?? Is it linked? If not, what else could this indicate? Overall where she is sitting is not the best place to lay an egg either and not where I found the first 3. She seemed to be breathing normally, sitting in a natural position, and was not making any weird noises.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
