Silkie limping and shaking head, neurological injury? *update*

Thank you, that mean so much to me and Bebe.

She has stopped limping! She still shakes her head but I talked to her previous owner and she said she's done that since she was a chick. If it continues or gets worse I'll take her to the vet. Otherwise she is doing great!

How does one administer steroids to a chick? We have a 6 week young bantam buff Silkie and I noticed she was doing the bobbleheads yesterday and still this morning. Needless to say she is tiny and is in with other same aged mixed bantams.

You have to buy a kitchen scale and weigh your chick, then you would have to crush a pill and add some amount of water and do a little math.
