All Chicks Shake Heads

[Dogsothoth]

Alllllll my chicks shake their heads. Real fast, almost twitch like. None of my adults do this. I cannot find any mites, lice, etc.

I use coffee ground bedding..... and I do need a larger space for them. Could the coffee ground bedding be making them twitch? Id feel terrible. Also, quick make shift temporary EASY ideas for more grow out space?

Caffeine is really bad for birds if they ingest it. I'd avoid coffee grounds as a bedding

It’s supposed to be uhm... caffeine free? Well used, harmless, made-for-chickens sold by rural king. But Im kind of wondering now, do I believe the labeling? I tried reading up on the topic & most say it’s safe but I’m starting to become doubtful.
