Hello! This isn’t the first time I’ve dealt with something like this just hasn’t been this severe, pretty sure my chicken or a rooster I’m not sure yet because he’s a young Silkie but I’m pretty sure he has wry neck it happen most out of nowhere the other day I’ve been giving vitamin E supplements, Nutri drench, vitamin B and vitamin K. Also Hydro him in the water for the past two days. He has also been Quarantine from the flock a few days now I had a chicken and her neck was limp. I gave her vitamin B12 and vitamin K within 48 hours she was back to normal and laid an egg this one not so much. I’ve noticed one of his eyes crusted over there’s a video I’m going to attach. It’s pretty sad , it’s been pretty hot as well but I have a fan in front of the house he is quarantined in and I’m not sure if it’s wrong to keep him alive. Maybe I should just put him out of his misery but I don’t want to if there’s any hope for him to live a normal life, none of my other chickens have shown any signs of this he is on Neutrena 16% layer feed which all of my chickens are on if anyone has any advice or if they think I should put him out of his misery please let me know. I’m not sure if I should try anything else or continue to do what I’m doing or if he’s suffering. I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place rite now.

I just realized I can’t post a video not sure a picture would work because he isn’t super fluffy and just looks like a blob of black fluff
