Wry neck in chick

[SilkieBrush]

My 10 day old chick is presenting wry neck symptoms. How could I treat it?

What are you feeding your chicks? Wry neck can be from vitamin deficiency, usually vitamin E or B1, try giving a 400 IU E and a little crushed vitamin B complex daily for a couple of weeks to see if it helps. You can use people vitamins.

At the moment im giving the chicks some chick feed from the local animal supply shop so im not certain of what the feed contains.
Ill find the vitamins as soon as possible.
Should I start making my own feed?

Thanks for your reply

There's no reason to make your own feed at this point, you can if you want, but it's pretty complicated, you can check the bag's label for the nutritional value.
Some chicks just have deficiencies no matter what they eat, it could be hereditary.
