I have noticed one of my rir chickens sometimes walking backwards withs its head down Like it is afraid of somthing , I have seen her do this more often latley ,
Any suggestions to what it could be. IS she sick ?or is she wired wrong LOL thanks for any imput
 
It could be wry neck, which is a vitamin E deficiency. You can purchase vitamin E in the liquid gel form at Walmart. Isolate her and squeeze a couple of those gelcaps in her water for about a week and see if that was the problem. Usually they perk right up. Hope that helps. Maybe someone else will see this and respond too. Good luck!
