Remember this is smoke from wildfires and not an industrial toxic disaster. There are wild birds, too that are enduring this and we seem to be getting worse every year. I'm optimistic that chickens under this cloud won't have the same trouble that the chickens in the Ohio town near the train derailment and toxic fire had where they were dropping dead from the chemical fumes. But like all of us, these particulates are not healthy for us or them to breathe and the anyone who is vulnerable should avoid going outdoors.
You could prepare an emergency sick room in case any of your birds start acting affected. Maybe plastic off a cool corner and run an air purifier inside that in the hen house, just for the ones that might get into trouble with this.
