I have 6 birds 3RIR, 3 BR - 6 weeks old.
Tonight one of the BR was lying on/across the head/neck end of one of the RIR and the RIR was making a sort of squealing noise... She could have gotten away if she'd wanted to, but wasn't even trying.
I tapped the brooder (going outside this weekend) and the BR still would not get up right away. Is this a dominance thing? I know the RIR could have gotten up and away if she'd tried.

my little month olds do it all the time when they lay down to sleep, silkies, BCM, cochin bantams, and 2 EE's.
 
Yes. This was at bed time... Chickens are weird
