he died but thanks for your help everyone

[chicken_boy_Kurt]

My favorite rooster, Gypsy King, is dying. I found him under the nest boxes and his neck is bent to 1 side and he cant move it back. He was always the smallest and the younger roosters picked on him so much that i had to seperate him from the whole flock. He is in a box right now because i just couldn't stand to see him how he is. Please help.

I'm sorry. It sounds like his neck may be broken. I lost two that way before I figured out it was one of my drakes getting my roosters.

It can be wry neck also, but if you aren't going to try to treat this bird, you might as well end its suffering.
