Possibly wry neck due to a vitamin deficiency. Can you post pictures of her?I have 6 two week old Cemani chicks. One keeps turning it's head to the right. She doesn't have foggy eyes or paralysis in the body.
What could it be?
It could be Wry neck, a vitamin E deficiency, which is not uncommon for this age. Try squeezing some vitamin E oil into it's beak. Also give it some finely minced boiled egg with some Nutri-drench dribbled over it. It's okay for all six chicks to eat this and it will encourage the chick to eat it.
What are you feeding the chicks? Are you providing chick grit?
What is your heat source? How warm is the brooder? Under the heat source and farthest away?
Is it acting, eating, drinking, moving normally otherwise? Could it be wry neck, I wonder?
I am still learning all of this, but you might search up wry neck and see if those symptoms seem to fit. It's a vitamin deficiency. I am sure other, more experienced folx will chime in soon.[/QUOTE
It's acting just like the other ones but turning it's head. It is smaller than the rest if them.

I see more experienced folks DID reply. I must've posted at the same time. I am a notoriously slow texter.Is it acting, eating, drinking, moving normally otherwise? Could it be wry neck, I wonder?
