duckling with crooked neck

This is one that I thought had wry neck, but it actually had E. coli.

Sadly it died, so I sent it to UC Davis for a necropsy, that's how I know it died from E.coli. Mine wasn't eating or drinking though, so if your's is, it could be a vitamin deficiency.

I think Rooster Booster Poultry Cell has all the B vitamins, but it's labeled for mature roosters, so I don't know how appropriate it would be for one this small. FWIW, I did use it twice when I had two chicken chicks with neurological problems and both recovered 100%. The dose I used was about 0.1ml per 100 grams.

Disclaimer: I have not treated wry neck, but did use that product above for a neurological problem in two chicks. Product is labeled for mature roosters, so research before using it.
