My little silkie started acting strange last week. Whenever I feed her, she starts squawking while stretching her neck out at a crooked angle. She still eats and drinks, but repeats that odd behavior in between.

When she's not eating, she tends to sit and pant like she's out of breath. I'm not sure what to think. I can't feel any lumps in her neck, or see anything in her nose that might be causing her discomfort. There's no discharge or strange poops. It almost sounds like she's coughing. She's a year old, so I don't think it's wry neck, unless they can develop it later on in life. Does anyone know what might be wrong with her?
