My chicken is falling over and putting it's head on ground

[TJStar]

We have 2 baby chicken Siklys and one of them keeps falling over and is putting it's head on the ground. It keeps chirping, and I am very worried about it. Please help.

Sounds like it may have received a blow or peck to the head. This is a pretty frequent thing with silkies. You may want to post on the "Silkie thread," for advice. Posting a photo of her/him on the silkie thread, and here also ,will help all of us see what's going on.

In addition to the place drumstick diva directed you to, you can also post on the ER forum to see what advice they can give you:
Emergencies / Diseases / Injuries and Cures

Best of luck!
