I need help…
I have an 18 wk old White Crested Black Polish pullet that has come down with what I believe is Wry Neck but I’m starting to question myself.
She is the only one who is showing any signs of illness so I separated her from the flock. I noticed one day that she was walking with a crook in her neck and moving rather slow and stumbley. She eats and drinks just fine but she is off balance, has a staggering/wobbly walk, a crook in her neck, and one of her eyes has yellowish mucus around it (very little but present). She doesn’t want to walk much and lays down mostly. I also notice her feet are being sat on awkwardly and almost look clenched in front of her. She has one side of her body that she struggles with more almost like what you’d see in a human who had a stroke that effected one side of their body. As I said before, she eats and drinks just fines and her feces is normal (no worms/ no discolor/ etc) and she does not have lice or mites.
I have been treating her with Vit B Complex, Vit. E and Selenium she also has Poultry Booster in her water. I am just at a loss. I’m hoping someone here may have some insight! I have been treating her for a week now. I’ve seen a little improvement but not much. I will attach pictures for better assessment! Any advice is greatly appreciated!
I do have videos of her walking as well if someone would like to see them!
