Polish chick

[Arnoldfarm]

Why does my polish chicken always have his head down when he walks and walks sideways and won't fly to roost like the other chick's do

Welcome to BYC. It looks like it is suffering from wry neck (torticolis) a condition caused by vitamin E or B1 thiamine deficiency or a head injury. Polish chickens can attract pecking of head feathers, and that can lead to head injury. Treatment can be treating with human vitamin E 400 IU soft gels, human super b complex 1/4 tablet daily, and giving a small amount of cooked egg yolk daily. You may need to hand feed the chicken some watery egg mushy wet chicken feed, 2-3 times a day if she cannot eat.
