One of my 2 month old Polish chicks went to bed fine last night, but this morning wouldn't leave the coop. I went in to see what was wrong, and she was on the ground looking like she was struggling keeping her head up. She is still alive, peeping, responsive, intermittently walking a few steps but with her head hanging down, and was able to swallow some water when I assisted her. I'm going to try to attach a video, but I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas about what might be wrong with her and what I can do for her? Thanks!

I hope this link works:

It sounds like paralysis. This can be caused by vitamin deficiencies, mareks, or botulism.

I hope she gets better soon!
