Sick chick?

[RidgeviewChick]

So this chick was perfect this morning. But now her neck is all twisted to the side and she is stumbling around. I have been holding her for a bit and she is laying in my hand not moving. My instinct is she is dying. But why? And what's wrong?? She was happy this morning.

And should I do with her? Put her with the others and hope for the best?

I'd separate her. The others could accidentally hurt her, or she could be contagious. It could be a lot of things, maybe wry neck?

Update: she died

so sorry for your loss..... =(
was she with others, ? they may have hurt her....
when you find chicks with twisted necks its usually because another grabbed their neck...
I give mine poly vi sol right away and separate them....
Your baby looked like it was too far gone.... so sorry....

I don't know what happened. She was fine this morning at 10.... when I came home at 2, she was like that. They already had vitamins in their waters. I did separate her once I found her. but she was dead by 5pm. I knew she wasn't going to make it, she just looked like she was dying. Hopefully the rest of the clutch do okay.
