My chick was fine just an hour ago suddenly I saw her acting weird (pulling her head to her body, closing her eyes, suddenly shouting and pointing to his right side of stomach)
I thought she must have eaten something bad but now she's gotten worst she's pulling her head to the right side of her body and her mouth is open she could move but now she can't she just sits it's like she has something stuck in her throat or maybe she ate something bad
Please help

I'm not sure but saw a website recommending feeding her Apple Cider Vinegar mixed with water, but I'm not sure is it safe to give her some?
 
This chick is probably dead by now. I couldn't access that video. You would need to post it to YouTube first and then copy the URL and paste that here. Then we can access it.

What you describe is a chick dying. Maybe from poisoning. Maybe from just having organs that don't work properly.

No she's still alive but she can't eat anything, she's just bending her neck and opened mouth unable to eat (and I think drink Cause she like throws a way when I try to give her some water)
Can it be wry neck?
 
If her neck is twisted to one side, it could be wry neck (torticolis.) You can give her some vitamin E and a little thiamine (B1) since either deficiency of those can cause wry neck. If you are in the US, most TSC’s and other feed stores sell Poultry NutriDrench or Poultry Cell which contain those as well as selenium. Try feeding her from a dropped, water and some mushy wet chick feed and egg. Hopefully she will recover, but if she is gasping with her beak open, that is a sign of distress.

thanks a lot for your reply
I was about to upload the video of her (the link of one I send was broken) that I took her to a vet what he says was that she has newcastle disease (but I'm still not sure if that's right) I've seperated her from others I hope he was wrong 😢
anyways I'll upload two videos of her

She is the same right now (not really moving sometimes standing and rarely spinning a little (her mouth is always open)) it's like she had a stroke :(
But I won't give up, I'm feeding her some water mixed with vitamins with a small Syringe
