My 2 week old Silkie chick has wry neck and I’ve separated her from the main brooder. I put in a water feeder along with her food, but her lack of balance due to wry neck has led her to fall into the water tray. She cant always get herself out so I decided the risk for drowning was too high while unsupervised and removed it. I’ve been giving her water from a dropper but am wondering how often she needs it. How frequently should I be giving her water? Any advice is SO appreciated!
 
Wry neck is vitamin E deficiency, so you need to give the chick vitamin e in the form of sunflower oil, or other oils and small seeds.
Perhaps you should replace the water tray with something smaller that she can't fall into...
