Quail hatchling with a funny wing position

[MotherOfCharlie]

Hello wise ones. I have a lovely little quail. I think it was shrink wrapped. I noticed it piping 2 days ago, when it still hadn’t emerged today, I broke it free, carefully of course.

Something isn’t right. At first I thought it was wry neck, but it feeds well and easily. I’m feeding it Vitamin E + S, in some watered down egg white. (It can’t stand, wriggles around on the floor).

Then I noticed one wing is over it’s head. I can easily move it to the correct position, with seemingly no discomfort.

I would love some ideas. I am giving it 24 hours of intensive care, after that, it’s dinner for the fox . (I had a terrible time with 5 wry necked babies on my last hatch).

I have attached two photos. With red arrows pointing at the wings. The wings are yellow tipped, the body is black, as is the first part of the wings.

Did your quail make it?

Unfortunately not. I think it was shrink wrapped for to long?

That's too bad Could have been shrink wrapped too long.
I don't do a lot of hatching, so still learning a lot about it myself.
