The one pullet we are trying to cure from what seemed to be wry neck still has issues. Her tail area turns to the left and her neck is crooked. She can do all the walking motions but her crookedness makes her too off balance to walk.
We have done the B vitamins and E vitamin and it has been more than a month and although she is stronger, she does not appear to be straightening out.
Chicken chiropractor? Therapist? How can I help her. She is a sweet happy henny who would like to chase some bugs someday
thanks
 
Could you post a fee pictures? She may have a spinal boney deformity such as kinky back or roach back (a spondylopathy.) They may also have a crooked breast bone or keel. Wry tail is another defect and with one rooster I had with it, seemed to have it most of the time, but then would look normal.
 
This chicken below has roach back. Here is an article to read about spinal and bone deformities:
