When having a mud bath, chickens use their wings to flip the mud onto their bodies, feathers all fluffed up to expose as much skin as possible.

 They also roll from head to tail. Below is what I managed to capture. The chicken is not actually sleeping with its head on the ground, this picture is an action shot.
 
Some pictures of Willow now:
