Hello and welcome to BYC!It just started earlier today, one of my 5 week old chicks started shaking their head. It’s a normal head shake, the kind they do all the time. but she keeps doing it like something is bothering her. Eyes, ears and nose look clear. It’s been a few hours now. It’s been a hot day but I’ve been sure made to keep them cool. Help, this seems serious
No, no problems breathing. Seems like it’s gotten a little better since I posted tho.
If she starts it up again, can you get a video of her behavior?It just started earlier today, one of my 5 week old chicks started shaking their head.

I have a 7-week old serama chick doing the same thing. What did yours turn out to be? Did they make it?It just started earlier today, one of my 5 week old chicks started shaking their head.
