When to cull a chick

[Chickiebabyfluff]

can they recover from wry neck?

i do not think it is suffering yet when it gets it head up it runs around and plays in the brooder...i have it seperated from the other chicks so tht they won't step on it i just wasn't sure how long if at all it would recover. thank you so much for the tips i will give them a try now )

There have been many chicks with wry neck that have recovered. You can put "wry neck" in the search box to see stories.

Hey Chickie,
Sorry to hear about your chick....

i had a Silkie with rye neck and it took about 2 months to get him back to good..
i gave him prednisone that you can get from the vet... as he got older Polyvisol vitamins every couple months keeps him " straight headed"
