Best foods for poorly chickens ?

[Chickens rule 33]

hi
I was wondering which food to give my poorly chicken so far I have given her :
Porridge
Lettuce
Cucumber
And scrambled egg
She didn't eat any cucumber though
Any suggestions on what else I can give her

Hello, I was wondering what you mean by 'poorly'? How is she acting specifically? Is she sick?

Hi
By sick I think she has wry neck

If it is wry neck, you need to give some vitamin E and selenium.
Won't the bird eat chicken feed? While scrambled egg is good, the feed is nutritionally complete.

Hi
She tries to eat her usual food but can not manage it as it is hard.
Today I gave her some warm porridge with selenium a,c and e sprinkled on the top and she ate most of it .

Good. You can soak the regular feed in water to make it the consistency of oatmeal

Specifically for a chick with wry neck, I would NOT give any of the "treats" you list, other than egg. She needs a good quality chick starter, along with Vit E, Selenium.

Hi
I gave her the treats because she hadn't eaten in a day and a half and while she was eating I wanted to try and get her to eat as much as she could.

How old is she?
How long has she had symptoms of Wry Neck?

I agree with @ChickenCanoe if she has Wry Neck, then she needs Vitamin E and Selenium. Selenium is found in egg, so you have that covered. How much Vitamin E are you giving?

Chickens with Wry Neck can also be deficient in Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), but they do seem to benefit from most all B vitamins. You may want to add 1/4tablet of human B-Complex vitamins (no iron) to her food in addition to the E.

Wet food is sometimes easier for them to eat. You may also find that she will do better if you can help her.
