I have a silkie who has been inside for a while now. She needed some major TLC and time to regrow her feathers. Her feathers have come in really nicely (she had lost almost all of them). Over the course of her time inside, she went broody and now we have a chick. I wanted to move her outside a while ago but didn't feel safe with the baby. I've been dealing with COVID the past few days so it wasn't until today that I noticed she seems to be exhibiting the symptoms of wry neck. I moved her and her baby to the outside coop (our secondary coop, smaller but it has a comfortable run and everything). I gave her some nutri-drench (which was extremely difficult) and she is walking around in their run. Sometimes she does tuck her head under her and kind of get stuck but then she stands back up and is fine.
How long do you think I should continue giving her the nutri-drench? How long before she perks up more? She's walking around and everything but it's clear that something isn't quite right.
