WRY NECK INFO AND TREATMENTS
Wry neck is not an illness itself but rather a symptom used to describe an abnormal head and neck position. Other commonly used slang terms include 'twisted neck', 'stargazing', limber neck', 'crook neck', and 'crooked neck'. The correct scientific term is actually torticollis. Wry neck causes the bird's head and neck to appear twisted and tilted. Depending on the cause, affected birds may initially be unable to hold their head up on their own.

There are multiple causes of wry neck in chickens. Vitamin deficiencies. Head trauma Botulism Newcastle disease Fowl cholera (FC) Avian encephalomyelitis (AE) Aspergillosis Marek’s disease (MD) Listeriosis Ear infection

I have followed all the recommended courses of treatment and we are not seeing great results but it's only been 1-1/2 weeks. I did find a way to support the neck so she can eat on her own and not fall backwards. It's a hair roller used like a neck brace lol. A spongy soft flexible dollar store hair roller. I formed it into a teardrop shape and cut the extra length off with wire cutters. Imagine hanging a hot show around her neck with the ends hanging down. Lightly squeeze the ends together so it won't slip off but be REALLY CAREFUL with the tiny little neck. Mine is a bantam Cochin so she's especially small. It has helped enormously with her stress level and flailing about! She is actually able to eat on her own although I am still dropper feeding her vitamin water. Oh! These rollers are available in different sizes for bigger chicks or full grown hems etc.

I REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE OUT THERE! Y'all have been SO very helpful to me the last month so I'd like to repay the favor

But, the egg does have some blood on it. The hen I am suspecting it came from is very petite and it wouldn't suprise me if this was a "big" egg for her. I checked all the hens and they seem fine. So as long as it doesn't happen consistently is shouldn't be worried,right?

you got it shah should be fine!

ANYONE deal with Wry NECK???? First time for me after all the chicks I hatched!!! dang its that pretty dark brown Silkie!!!! going to look at our notes and internet tag me if you treated it please!

I dealt with it a couple of years ago. Little Dom Roo from MMc. I didn't notice it until he was down. I thought he'd be a goner by morning, but he was cold and unresponsive, but still alive. By then, I'd done a bit of research and formulated a treatment plan. I nicked a Vitamin E caplet open, and was able to get a bit into him. Added Selenium on day 2 of treatment. Was hand feeding (not tubing) a thin gruel of Kaytee baby bird hand feeding formula, and started mixing the Vit E and Selenium (and Poultry Nutri-Drench) into that. Day 1, I had to give him total support, and dribble gruel/meds into the side of his mouth every hour. Day 2, he was able to hold his head up. Day 3, he was able to stand. Day 4 he was perching. By the end of the first week, I had a hard time catching him, or telling him apart from his siblings for treatment. He went on to develop severe scoliosis and congestive heart failure.

dang!!!! good stuff to know lg!! thank you!!

That's perfect!! It would be a good contest because it's harder than it looks.
