    Succesful treatment Wry neck

    Hi, I had a baby chicken who overnight developed symptoms of wry neck. He also had head twitching, seizure like symptoms. It looked really bad and he had these symptoms for over 4 weeks! I came to a point that I thought it would be better to take him out of his misery. However I did a lot of...

    baby chicken with wry neck and swollen crop

    Hi, Just wanted to share that Henkie has miraculously improved. No more signs of wryneck, none! He is strong and well and growing every day :) I don't know what did the trick, but I have been treating him with St. Johns Worth, so who knows, that might have been the cure :) Thanks so much for...

    baby chicken with wry neck and swollen crop

    Thanks again Chooks4life. St. John's wort has been added to his diet as well as raw garlic, vitamin E and a multivit, echinacea and sometimes turmeric. I am thinking maybe Newcastle now. But not giving up hope yet. He's often way too alive and active. I will keep you posted.

    Thank you so much. You have been more than helpful. I just gave him a worm treatment. Seems like he has tapeworms. I hope the symptoms were caused by the worms. Best wishes!

    baby chicken with wry neck and swollen crop

    Just some extra symptoms today, his head, neck and in general his skin looks quite reddish. And he is itchy. He scratches his head a lot and is picking at his feathers. He gets bald spots here and there. Also when I had him on his back (wrapped in a towel) to give him his vitamins, I noticed the...

    baby chicken with wry neck and swollen crop

    Hi Chooks4life, Thank you so much for your reply, it helps a lot! So I worry less now about the look of his crop, so glad to hear that it looks normal. It is a normal Balinese street chicken. Normally they are quite tough ;) His neck is an issue indeed, he seems to have wry neck. But during...
