I brought home 3 hens and a rooster today from a reputable breeder who I have worked with before. I was at his place, all hens were great and active etc. We put the hens in the cage and the rooster in the front seat. When I got home and began to unload one of the hens was not moving, Her neck was twisted down and she was not in the least bit interested in checking out her new surroundings like the others.
I have seen what I think is wry neck in some of my chicks and this is like that. However, it cant be! She was fine 30 min before! I don't want to lose her. She keeps going to a corner and sticking her head in it and not moving. She is a one year old black orpington. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
