Hello,
My one year old hen has developed symptoms of wry neck. This came on not long after her first molt this fall. After some research and advice from our local feed store, I went with giving a selenium and vitamin e gel and nystatin for a possible fungal infection. I am on day 8 of twice a day dose of the vitamin supplement and day 4 of the anti-fungal treatment and she seems to be getting worse- More frequent neck twists that last longer and inhibit her ability to act like a regular chicken, including inhibiting eating and drinking normally.
Is there something else this could be or that I should be doing?
I’ve added a picture of what her neck twists are looking like.
Thanks for any advice!
