Chicken. With tail down hardly walking

[alinas2010]

Thank you. Any suggestions for administering grit by hand?

Hmm that’s tough. Mine have always taken grit as needed. Is she not eating any? You could mix a bit into her food. But not too much, it is generally just recommended to let them eat as they need. Did the vet figure a crop or gizzard issue?

Inner ear or vitamin deficiency. So it sounds like wry neck. So I have to hand feed her and give her water in a dropper until she can eat on her own. She can't eat out of a dish right now.
