Mine have started doing this. Its just started to get real hot and humid down here in Pensacola FL. Guess thats the cause. Although the havent layed eggs yet(bout 22 weeks old, had them for 7 weeks). Could it be stress?

Heat is relative to what your chickens are used to. Here in Wisconsin my birds are hot above 80-85.

Well its a good 10-15 degrees hotter then anything they have experienced yet.
