    Is this normal?

    The Tom being on the floor maybe by the size you gave maybe he is to heavy to get up on the roost depending on the height of the roost from the floor he may need a roost closer to the ground say 2 feet or so. all birds like to roost. What breed are they if they are Brod breasted production breed...
