Thank you Debbie! That's helpful to know. I just hate for her to suffer - and I am having to administer her food & water so it isn't sustainable really. But if she may be able to recover in a week or so - that would be great!
Here is the chick 2 days ago when I first got her. She has not improved or declined. When she lays down or sleeps, this behavior stops of course. But as long as she is awake, some version of this is going on, and she cannot walk in a straight line.
Thank you!! I can provide a video and will do so shortly! Would love to hear if you feel like it looks like wry neck.

I suppose it may be scaly leg mites. If anyone has an ideal treatment plan for that, please let me know!

Hello! My Bantam Cochin Hen has been limping for a week or so now. When she stands in place, she lifts the one leg. I have checked for bumble foot and that doesn't seem to be the case. She seemed completely fine otherwise, so I was hoping the issue would resolve itself. However, overt he past...
