Chicken with twisted neck?

[rnoss]

My hen seems to be walking with her head and neck twisted. She seems to be eating and drinking and straightens her neck out once in a while, but not for long. My daughter calls her the "Exorcist Hen"!

Try giving her some vitamin B. Crush a tablet into powder and sprinkle it on her feed to eat.

Did the vitamin B help - I just found a twisted neck cockerel in my flock today.

I've had luck alternating or offering both a vitamin B water and a molasses water. I'd also check that they have enough space, no one is getting picked on, no hidden mold or unsanitary conditions, a bug infestation. They have access to calcium. It seems when one gets weak it was something overlooked. Improving the situation helps turn it around. Good luck!
