I recently took in a wry neck duckling (not from my flock) I’m planning to treat him w Poly vi sol, vitamin E capsules and selenium tablets. The question is, if this is a head injury and not a deficiency, will it harm him? He seems to have gotten worse today, but apart from that he’s doing great (Walking in circles, lots of yelling, getting his head suck back more often, falling). Eats and drinks great, etc. He’s able to walk forward and even groom by himself. (He’s a silver apple yard duck, about a week old at this point) we had also been informed that the people who previously had him, hatched him. But, they messed with him during hatching. I’m hoping this isn’t any head trauma and that he can improve. Any suggestions are appreciated
 
I don’t know a whole awful lot about the potential problems of messing with hatching young. I know your not supposed to because it is so easy to hurt them.

I’m fearful this is possible injury due to being messed with when hatching.

Would you be able to post pictures or share videos?
