Chick with twisted neck?

[Kyah_02]

This is my first hatch and my chick looks like it’s neck is twisted I don’t know for sure but it just lays there and rolls and chirps. I was just wondering if this chick is ok and I’m just worrying too much

Give it time!

It'll almost certainly straighten out on its own. Chicks are trapped in a weird position inside the shell, and sometimes, their bodies have to work out a few kinks before they begin looking like chicks.

It does look a little odd...

But hopefully it is just still from fresh hatching.

Sometimes, just hatched chicks have a crick in their necks. They usually straighten out within an hour or two. Nothing to worry about.
