I am new to the world of chickens and I wanted to see if anyone new what these two might be doing. They are about 12 weeks old, and these two are laying in the dirt ruffling their feathers so that dirt gets on them and just laying there almost fighting over the spot. I tried to move them and they just went to another part of the coop(outside) and layed in a different area of dirt. None of the others are doing this do you think they are sick or something. Do not see any bugs on them. Do chickens get bugs or flea like things? It is starting to get warm out but only about 80 degrees. I lost one chicken 3 weeks ago so I medicated all of them. Just wanted some others thoughts on this. Thank you.
