I picked up an assortment of cochin bantams (and a couple of silkies) about 2 weeks ago. My daughter is raising them to show. We have one who has developed the habit of putting the crown of it's head on the floor of the brooder and shaking it around. Today at lunch I noticed the chick "sleeping" with it's head between it's feet.

Any idea what's up with this crazy little chick?
 


It's a little hard to see in the pic (phone doesn't take great photos, but you'll see the little guy's (?) head poking out under it's backside. It's kinda like an ostrich trying to put it's "head in the sand" (which I know they don't really do...) Oddest dern bird. :-) Guess it's earned it's name, though... "Nutso"
