They might be holly croppers. They are a heavy built bird, with the head slightly back that shakes a lot. I have several friends that have them, but I do not care for them.

oh ok thank you these birds had very skinny long necks and they stood there and shook

If they have long skinny necks they are not holly croppers. Holly croppers are pretty stocky.

Many years ago the standard fantail was also called a shaker. But other then that There is not a breed called that. Several breeds will have the shakey neck. Mookies, fans, ect.
