My 2yo Sussex started acting odd this afternoon. First time ever. She has been standing still in one spot for a while. She never lets me pick her up & today she did. Hold her even. She looks fluffier than usual. I squeezed her belly and nothing. Her flute isn't swollen or blocked. I inserted a gloved & lube finger to check for anything inside I could find & nothing. She usually is very active. Freaks with joy when I feed. Chases others around. Pecking all day. I haven't seen her eat or drink anytbing since I noticed her behavior change.

The light. One was outside the other was in the coop. Her comb is definitely redder than usual too. She's also starting to fall asleep while she's standing.
