alex_m Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Whenever I go out to my hens or look out the window, one of them is sitting down. The other doesnt. When I go up to them she gets up. Was just hoping it might be the signs of her first egg. Hope its not serious. I've only had them 3 days and am new to chickens. Is this normal?

Redwing Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 If she seems ok then I wouldnt worry too much If she is puffed up and pulls her head down to her shoulders and/or closes her eyes all the time then there may be something wrong one or two of my hens are very lazy and will lie down even to eat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Its ok to worry sometimes! When you know their personalities you just know when something is up so it does get easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
