I recieved my order of a dozen chicks on Tuesday; 8 Light Brahmas and 4 Partridge Rocks. My sister noticed today that one of the Light Brahmas had her head always turned to the right side. I checked on her and found that she could move her head to the other side - I saw her preening - but she always had it turned to one side. She seems to have bad balance, but she has been eating and drinking as far as I know. She doesn't act sick, just mellow. Her neck bone feels misshapen; curved. Here's a few pics of her. What do you think I should do?





 
This chick most likely has a broken neck.

It would be best to put it down. This chick will not be able to eat or drink properly even if it makes it to adulthood. sorry for your loss.
