Hello!
For the past two days, my rooster has been holding his neck in an odd position, I will attach a picture. He is unsteady and is very slow when walking. He’s not drinking on his own and he doesn’t seem to have much of an appetite either. He seems reluctant to reach down or groom properly like he can’t reach his tail or wings. Occasionally he opens his beak wide to breathe. He’s not crowing at all.
He has severe crossbeak and is normally handfed a mix of regular chicken feed and egg. Droppings look normal.
I’ve never seen anything like this before, does anyone recognize it?
My boy turns four in August. He’s very dear to me so any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you. <3
