GL polish has some neck trauma or sickness

[Klongeway]

Hopefully someone might know what’s going on. We have a golden lace polish chicken who either has a vitamin deficiency or injury not 100% sure. He/she can still move around but not like the others we have it will you get babies instead with it’s own age group cause it was getting picked on. It didn’t always have a problems but around 3-4 weeks old we noticed it didn’t look right. I know polish are prone to vitamin E deficiency or wry neck (has vitamin water everyday) but I don’t think that’s what it is. I could be wrong but it almost looks like it was crushed. You can see what looks like the neck bone out of place maybe. Chick is still eating and drinking and growing the same as other polish chicks but can’t get around good and is always laying down we are fine with it being an indoor chicken/ special needs. Hopefully pictures help. Thank you for taking the time to help.

I would start treating him for vitamin deficiency, 400 i.u vitamin and about a third of a B complex tablet, every day for about two week or until conditions improve.

Thank you. Are you thinking it is vitamin deficiency and not injury. I will grab some of the thing you suggested I assume tractor supply should have this?

You're welcome. Actually, a drug store or vitamin section at the grocery store has this, you want vitamin e gel caps, 400i.u and B complex tablets.

Do I break the gel capsule or dissolve it?

You don't have to but you can take a tiny bit of bread and mix it wit it.
