Default Newbie question - odd chicken behaviour?

I have had my hens for 2 weeks, they were point of lay and we are just now getting 6 a day.

In the past few days one of the hens has started doing this odd 'head bob' side to side, from the shoulder. She also does this 'sleepy hen' bit, where suddenly she stops mid-walk and closes her eyes for at least 5 seconds (i know the feeling, mind you).

Is this normal?

thanks
