Why would a chick sleep standing up

I LOVE that picture!!! That is too funny!

I've got one that falls asleep staring at herself in the mirror. I have found her sleeping with her face smashed against her reflection more times than one. She just loves her reflection! I think it's becoming a problem, and I've chatted with her about it, but she apparently thinks that's the best view in the coop.

I love that pic too!!!!! There really is no "normal"!

Chick-Chick likes her reflection too lol, snoozes that way when she's visiting us in the house!

Normal? There are so many different sleeping patterns going on with mine it is sooo cute. I watched one of the turkens walk up to some of the others, he stretched out his neck and wings over them and then just laid down. It was sooo cute to watch - of course the camera was no where near the brooder

OMG you gotta post pics! I want to see that one with the feet in the air!

lol. I haven't been successful taking a picture of him, yet. I need a webcam, since I know they act differently when I'm not around. For some reason, I like the JCXR's more than the rest of my flock..they have a certain laziness that just makes me jealous.

Yup had two of those. Scared the living daylights out of me first time I saw them with butts in the air, heads in the shavings and leaning against the side of the brooder!

I had one that would fall asleep face down in the pine shavings. A couple of times I thought it was dead.

How is it doing now
