I want to thank everyone for all their helpful information on wry neck. A few months ago I learned the hard way about wry neck. My little silkie had it and I thought she was a gonner. She would walk around with her head between her legs. I thought she must be retarded. She would do this for a few days and then be ok. This happened since we got her.
One day, we were having bad rain storms, I found her laying face down in a puddle barely breathing and not moving. I brought her in, wrapped her in a towel and put her in my tub. Thought she would die over night. That night I tried to find out what was wrong with her and if there was any hope in saving her or if I should put her out of misery. I found out that she needed vitamin E and selerium and baby poly-vits. In the morning she was barely alive but alive so I went to the store and bought all the vitamins I needed and some greek yogurt to try to feed her.
She was so weak but managed to get some vitamins into her and some yogurt. It took about 2 weeks before she could hold her head up to eat by herself. She didn't give up and I didn't give up on her. Today she is alive and doing great and is back with her flock! I am so greatful for everyone's advice and helpful stories. Thank you all again!
