is my chicken allergic to me!

When I hold my chicken she shakes her head. She doesn't shake her head any other time it's just when I hold her close to me. Is it my shampoo that maybe bothers her?

In what way does she shake her head? She could just be looking around because it might alarm her that another creature is holding her.

It's like a constant jerking. But like I said only when I hold her or she sits on my shoulder. When she's not on me she's fine she don't have any head shaking.

Has she ever hit her head on anything? If it's more of a rapid head jerking I think she might have brain damage.. If its more of this

Then she either is just looking around curiously, or she has a irritation on her comb, neck, or head.
