    Quail walking in circles with its head on its side

    I have separated her from the bevy and put her in a smaller cage overnight. She has not got any worse but I'm feeding her a mix of spinach and egg yolk for vitamin E and selenium

    Quail walking in circles with its head on its side

    I've just seen that one of my quail has its head on its side and can only walk in circles. What should I do. Is it wry neck?
