Hello. I have an almost 4 month old male jumbo Pekin duck with what I’m assuming is wry neck due to injury. While in the brooder, a small fan fell and (assuming) hit him. I know the wry neck is not due to deficiency because he’s eating, drinking, swimming and “being a boy” just fine. Is there anything I can do for him or is this a non fixable issue since it’s an injury? Thank you

Welcome To BYC

I'm sorry to hear about your Duck.

Wry Neck is a neurological symptom - common causes are neck/head trauma/injury, disease, etc.

I would treat with vitamin therapy to see if that helps. Give him 400IU Vitamin E and 1/4 tablet B-Complex daily.

Thank you. Where’s the best place to find both of those things? I’ve been looking around but am afraid of getting the wrong thing.
