I have one aracauna hen, about 4 months old, and she just seems different to me than my other 7 hens. She walks differently, holds her differently, tilts her head to the side (looking to the sky, always the same side up) to look at me rather than holding her head up right and turning toward me like my other hens do. Her balance seems to be a little off, but it might be that she is off balance because she holds her head to one side. I called the person I bought her from and his response is that she is just different from the breeds I am used to and that she is perfectly fine. (See my signature to see what I have)
I just got her yesterday with 3 other hens (all from the same flock) and they are quarantined from my other 4.
Is it possible she was fine when I got her yesterday and hit her head or something while transporting her?
I know pictures would help, but it's hard to capture. From reading it sounds like she may have wry neck/crooked neck, but I'm not sure.
