Today a friend of mine saw her and said it might be ND. What do you think?
 
There is not much else she is eating and drinking normally walking around in her cage normally
 
She has wry or crook neck which can be a symptom of injury to the head or neck, from a vitamins deficiency, or from certain diseases: Mareks and some of the bad respiratory diseases such as exotic Newcastles, fowl cholera, and coryza. I would treat her with vitamins (vitamin B! or thiamine, E, and selenium.) Selenium is also found in eggs and other foods. Prednisone is sometimes used if severe. Decrease noise and stimulation, and help her to eat and drink. Here are some links about this, and the first has vitamin dosages:
