    wheaton hen won't/can't open it's one eye

    We got a new hen last week along with a couple of other birds from a breeder. One of the hens is unable to open it's eye in the AM due to something holding the lid shut. It seems to crust over with a hard crust at the lid opening. We have been using a q-tip and water to help the hen open the...

    wry neck

    Any suggestion on how to get Vitamin E and Selenium into a baby chick. I mixed the vitamin/electrolyte packet (yellow one from the mill) that is the energy booster. I pick up this chick and let him drink it but he's a mess. Neck is spun around backwards...probably wry neck is all I can...
