Does anyone know what is wrong with this chick? (Video)

My little chick wont stop shaking its head. It does this when its awake, when it sleeps it stops. It is alert, and can walk around.

I think this may be the one I helped out.

circling head, twisted back=toxoplasmosis
but it's rare
a central nervous system disorder caused by protozoa=toxoplasma gondii
does not say what to do for it

Sorry that's all I could find about problems affecting the head

Thank you! I wondered about brain damage due to lack of ozygen during hatching. Just a thought.

I hope he gets to be ok he is SO cute. I think you should put on some music to suit, video him and send it off to funniest videos so you can pay for the vet

He is really cute. It doesnt seem to bother him to much. It is very curious that it stops while sleeping....
