Head Twitching

[adiekaty]

hi all,
bought a 6 month old smooth sizzle today. Cuuuute as can be, super sweet and docile.
Question is, she is constantly twitching her head. She does have the big poofy feathering on top,
like a polish.. So is she just trying to see better?
Im new to all this, not sure what to think.
She is eating and drinking.. so thats good.
although, she doesn't walk around much. person i got her from, does have a daughter who carried her all the time.
Maybe she needs to learn what her legs are for? haha
Should I be concerned? Or not?
Thanks..

So what you're saying is you bought a sizzle that's 6 months old, twitching, and not walking very much. I would return her, and just wait to get one from someone else that is healthy. You may be exposing your flock to some serious ailments. Some of which have no cure.

yes.. guess thats what I'm saying.. Its a constant twitch.. like she is trying to move hair from her eyes?? she walks.. just not like all the others. I just figured because she can't see well?
I'm keeping her with the other two (silkie and bantam cochin) that i bought from the same lady together, they aren't with my others yet.

I have a video of her twitching.. but can only post on Facebook.. UGH!!
