Necks breaking!!

Pics
I'm like Kiki, I don't see anything concerning. They may be a bit bored. Getting them into a bigger space may help. The perches are a good idea. Also if you have room in the brooder give them a shallow pan of dirt with a plug of sod, they love to have something to scratch in and pick at - dirt is heaven to chicken.
 
Well, I'm moving them outside into a shed, and I'm working on getting an outlet put in because it gets WAY too hot in there, and they need a fan. They're getting moved in a week, so is there anything I can do beforehand to help at all
Before you move them out make SURE there is enough ventilation in this coop.
If not make some add more.
Do you have any photos of the coop?

I'm thinking that if you need a fan there is probably not enough ventilation to begin with.

Do you have a fan on them now?
Could there be something in the air that is bothering them, where they are now?
If you have been giving them antibiotics already for a week and the sneezing hasn't stopped then I doubt that more antibiotics is going to make it stop.

It's a large dog kennel, about 4ft by 2ft, in a wooden shed. I do have a fan near them, but not pointed directly at them. It's actually pointed at me, I sleep by them incase they need something during the night. Here's the place they'll be moved to. I have to use shavings again in the large one because the paper towels would be too expensive. I don't think theres anything in the air that could be irritating them, I try to avoid spraying things in the house. Can you recommend anything else that could help stop the sneezing and mucus?
