Newbie Here and struggling

Keep us posted on this little one! :)
First off, thank you every single person for the welcomes and encouragement. It was needed and truly made my wife and I feel like we are joining a special community.
Second off, our little one is doing okay! We got it some Vitamin E and selenium as both my local feed stores were out of the nutri-drench. So tonight our little one got a bit of that with some egg yok and it has been able to hold itself up a bit within a few minutes. . Small wins are still a win in our book. We spoke to the person who we got our eggs from and she fully believes it to be wry neck. She is also going to get us a few more eggs so we can grow our little group some more.
We were concerned with getting the poultry booster as it has iron and when I was getting the polyvisol I was told to avoid iron. See my confusion? Someone please advise me if one is more okay than the other or not! Would love to learn more and more.

Thank you everyone again! I'll update as we go along with hopefully more positive updates.

I'm so glad your chick is doing better! I have used the Poly Vi-Sol with iron in a pinch. I would say it is ok if used for a short term, as both products have similar amounts of iron per ml.
I wouldn't use it long term. Iron can cause constipation.
Keep an eye on her poop. Good luck with your little ones, and with your next hatch.
