HELP!!!!!! QUAIL POOP IS GRAY!!!

[TwoCrows]

the bent neck chick is okay, just a bent neck. dont really wanna treat it it with vitamin e, you can kill them with that. i also don't have any poly vi sol. will human vitamin e work?

The B vitamins will help with strengthening and straightening the neck.

I had one with wry neck and he was fine, eating and drinking and acting normal. He never noticed it. I say (had) because I recently.....you know.....
And human vitamin E is the same as any other vitamin E. You can get gel capsules and break them open. Not sure of the dosage. I just mixed in a chick vitamin mix in the water in the subsequent hatches and so far so good. This could also be due to the b vitamins, as @TwoCrows suggested

he seems ok, doesn't notice it, just has a red bump on right side of neck. do you NEED to treat it? there is no feathers on bump, probably because the muscle on that side is longer.

Maybe a gentle massage or a warm wrap around it, might make it loosen up or maybe make it feel better for it? Idk, just a thought!
Unless the skin is broken, not much you can do to treat other than the vitamins.

If it doesn't seem to be getting worse and functions ok and can't tell he's different or getting picked on theres no reason to treat, but if it's just a matter of trying vitamins in the water for a while, why not? It can't hurt. I dont think I'd breed it tho, JIC it's a genetic thing. I didnt breed mine. I only culled him because he became aggressive.

yea, it's only like 30 degrees away from stright neck, and the other quail don't bully him, and i am not looking for new chicks, so that wouldn't be a problem. he just bumps into walls mre often but he learned to live with it. i think correcting it would just make him walk in the opposite direction because his brain is already adjusted to a curved neck
