This chicken may look dead, but it is very much alive! Recently, a visitor asked why my chickens dig in the dirt like that. They are taking "dust" baths. This helps to dry up moisture in the feathers that would interfere with their ability to insulate the chicken from both heat and cold. They often dig a hole in loose dirt and sit in it like they would in a nest, but they are just trying to keep cool!
God Bless You All!
