what could this be?

I have a silkie whose neck kinda slides to the right when she looks up. Resets her head back to center and it slides back over. I rescued her a month ago and, of course, just brought her out of quarentine. Its not something i noticed until now, but its possible i over looked it with her being in a smaller cage for quarentine and not knowing a tin about diseases. She's eating And drinking fine, still laying eggs, no lice or mites, or worms, is accruing just fine other than the word neck thing.. Im worried now that I've exposed my flock to something potentially fatal, but i also don't know a ton about their diseases as I'm still new with chickens and have never run into this before.

It sounds like wry neck. Do an on site search on 'wry neck' for symptoms and treatment.

I don't know, maybe a mild case of it... het head doesn't flop astound and she sends to style habe balance. Her neck just does to want to stay centered.

Could she be adjusting her crop?

Oh hmm maybe. It was right after they ate and i just went to check on her and doesn't look like shes doing it anymore.
