he/she is rubbing it's head on the bottom of the cage, looks up scoots backward. stool is solid, light green. started early this morning just looking sideways gone downhill since then. Is chirping and nuzzling mt hand

Help please!!
 
Tried to give it some Vitamin E and B with water and ground chick starter with a medicine dropper. Not sure how much she actually got, it's not an easy thing to do.

Now we'll wait and see. She perked up a little bit after the first attempt and we'll try again later. She's sleeping peacefully right now. Some silkie breeders have indicated that it's possible she has crookneck.
