he’s trying to stand but is unable to and wiggles his neck around

does a chick recover from wry neck ?

You can mix a teaspoonful of sugar and a small pinch of salt into a quart or liter of water and dissolve them. That will be close to electrolytes. Wry neck or torticolis is a neurological symptom that can be seen in head or neck injuries, vitamin deficiencies, and in some infectious diseases. It can be treated with vitamins (E 400 IU pearls and some B 1 thiamine) daily.

but can it be treated when it’s caused by injuries? i’m currently giving him water and runny paste of his food and bread crumbs

I'm thinking too that letting him rest will be helpful.

he’s been wrapped up resting, hopefully he recovers, he’s trying to stand up and move but he can’t, he moves his legs and tail and tries to wiggle his wings but he just wiggles around his neck

it’s hard to do much with only 20 minutes of power and wifi

I’ve never seen an injury to neck caused by an adult rooster kicking them heal. It’s usually nerve damage.
I would kill the rooster that did it if he’s an adult.

You could fill a hot water bottle with warm water to keep him warm without overheating.
