Please Help Me! My Chick Is Acting Very Strange!?

[L*A*G*]

my silkie chick has been doing this since morning, cocking its head up to the sky but now its really bad! she acts like she can't straighten it out! I'm going to put a video up when I find out how.

Also a year or so ago I had a silkie who was alway tucking her neck under her and then act like she couldn't straighten it out but luckily she "grew" out of it. I hope this'll be gone tomarrow

I don't have any advice for you - but I do wish you and your chick luck.

Do a quick search here......Wry Neck or Crook Neck that should lead you to how others have dealt with it.​

It's most likely wry neck which is very common to silkies because of their vaulted skull. It is pretty easy to cure so don't worry

it is wry neck and she's gotten worse but I think she'll make it. Thanks for the help and encouraging comments.

she's doing great now! this morning wasn't too pretty but right now she's all perky and walking!

i think the more i can get her to use her neck muscles the better it's getting! thanks everyone!
oh and it's prob not a good idea to use her eggs for hatching in the future right?
