My chix tilts her head back so far after she drinks water and falls over or goes around in circles and has a hard time uprighting herself. This doesn't happen when she eats. She was born in an incubator and is about 5 months old now. I don't know what to do about her. Her head is permanently tilted.

I'm sorry to hear that. I personally haven't had this experience, so I don't know how to help you. Is she getting around fine, or is she in a major problem?
 
Think abut the quality of life this poor chicken has.
Then put her down mercifully. It's the right thing
to do. She can't even be a proper chicken, poor thing.
Warm Regards,
Karen

I agree with her, Put the chick down in a humane way. Either it be by a injection, pill, or a more hands on approach with a axe or a type of sword. Just make it quick and painless if you decide to take the unfortunate chicken's life.

It's always hard to make these decisions.
