    Hen with gut issues and wry neck

    The same thing happened to my rooster. Mash saltine crackers and mix with Pedialyte until it's a soupy mashed potato texture, I also added a liquid b12 vitamin complex because a deficiency in B12 complex can cause wry neck. Feed this to your chicken 2-3 times a day and she should get stronger.

    Are there any smaller animals would be in this area because there aren't really any large holes in the enclosure. And the areas that have been eaten are rather small.
