Chirping
My husband found one of our chicks laying in the brooder this morning with its head all of the way back into its back. Its feet are either always stretched out, or the whole foot is curled up. It can move its feet though. All it does is lay there. It is breathing heavily and its eyes are closed. Has anybody else had this issue? Is there anything we can do to help it? My husband has been giving it water through a dropper, but we aren't sure what else to do. Vets are not usually open on Saturdays here.
After doing some research, we believe it might be wry neck. We made an early trip to walmart and bought some vitamin b supplements, along with selenium and pedialyte. We are mixing it together along with some molasses and syringing it carefully to the baby because it is unable to eat and drink on its own.
Does this sound like wry syndrome? Any suggestions on what we should do? I am attaching a picture of the chick.
