when my chickens go to roost at night they all seem to shake thier head. more like they are ruffling thier feathers, not a twitching. I read about potential for mites or worms that could cause this. I've treated for both and there is no change...

I didnt know if maybe this is a normal behavior during roosting, a communication thing or what. They only do it while they are up on thier roosts, not when they are on the ground.
 
It could be just getting comfortable. But it never hurts to vigilant for pests.
