Chickens are creatures of habit and they absolutely hate change. This chicken just seems more sensitive to it than the others... she will eventually follow suit and start laying with the others. Just give get time to adjust to the change.
 
It gets funnier couldnt find Nother one my chickens she only managed to sqeeze under the old coop as door shut and now happily laying in old nest box just found her like this 🙈🙈🙈

Lol told ya! When we moved the location of our coop, the chickens lined up where the coop used to be, totally confused for about 3 nights... even though their food was hanging from it and they had been eating in the new location all day. They still went back to the mud pit to look for the coop at night to roost. We had to chase / carry them to the new coop location for a few nights until they figured it out.
