weird chicken

[cinken1968]

I have 2 red hens that were a gift. I have had them almost a year. They lay 2 eggs a day mostly.
One is weird does not lay everyday,does this weird thing, she lays in dirt head down with butt in air. What is she doing ?

a pic would help. mine lay sprawled out weird in the sun. Also mine will go chest down and then lay and flap to get the dirt rubbed through their feathers. Not sure if that is what you are talking about

I too think it sounds like she is dust bathing. Here is an article about it > https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/dust-baths-what-they-are-and-why-they-are-important
