Hope this is in the right place.
Penelope my only rooster (he was a surprise, so excuse the girl name!) constantly lies down to eaither eat scratch or poop, and he’s the only one I’ve noticed doing it. He doesn’t seem lethargic, is crowing non stop and loves running really fast when he gets to free range (while it’s hot they’re getting about 8 hours free ranging daily). He doesn’t seem to be in any pain although he has become much more afraid of me recently (I used to be able to pick any of them up very easily and they’d be happy to cuddle but recently all of them have become very timid and run away).
He’s an almost 13 week old welsummer if that helps. I just don’t know if this is normal!
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
