Hi, I’m new on here. I have 3 adult hens, 5 nine week old chicks, and a rooster. I’m exited to get and give advice to other chicken lovers.
I’m having an issue with one of my chicks. Addie has shown symptoms of Wry neck the past few days. I’ve been giving her vitamin e, selenium & rooster booster in her water. She can walk, eat, and drink but after about 5 minutes, she tucks her head and seems to seizure, walks backwards, and then comes out of it within 30 seconds or so. At night, she does it almost constantly in her box (separated from others). Any advice about this would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to BYC. I'm sorry for your problem with Addie. It sounds like you are doing what you can.
I would make sure she has plain water, as well as the rooster booster. Also, eggs are high in selenium. Mine love scrambled eggs. Best of luck to you both.
