Well here's the things. Today when I opened my front door the girls, Cookie and Dot, were on the front porch knocking as they always do when they want to come inside and eat. So I let them in and fed them their usual lunch of grilled cheese and tomato soup. They wanted coffee but due to the heat I insisted the hens drink iced coffee. When thy finished the cool beverage and their brown biscuits with yellow honey they wanted to go swimming. I put their suits on them and sent them out to play and swim.
Well to my surprise 30 minutes later I opened the door and there they both laid. Flat out on their sides, feet kicked to the wind. I immediately thought maybe the cheese was bad. But then I thought the worst. I panicked and immediately went into crises mode. I spun Cookie and Dot onto their backs and started chest compressions and mouth to beak resuscitation. As I was pounding on Dots chest I would be delivering live saving breaths to Cookie and vise versa. After 18 minutes I realized they were not dead. They were merely sunbathing because they switched sides towards the sun. Ooops.
So to answer you question. Yes chickens to rest on their side.
Hope this helps.
