hen eating lots of mud !!

my hen had chicks about 10 weeks ago,she lives with them in a run but is clearly not getting on with them.
She sounds distressed clucking all the time. She eating loads of mud her poo just looks like wet mud.

Im just a little concerned about her, she looks healthy enough is it a mood thing? anyone had this before.

Re: hen eating lots of mud !!

Sounds like a vitamin deficiency, try her on a higher protein food and grit,
