Wry neck

[Jedwards93]

I have a 16 ish week old Oliver egger which was fine last night. I went out today and she is having trouble standing and her neck keeps going upside down like. I was told it's wry neck. What do I do? Right now I mixed rooster booster powder, electrolyte and probiotic powder into a gallon of water and have been giving her a bowl of it. I have been helping her drink it. She also has a little bit of rooster booster pellets mixed in her normal grower feed. Is there anything else I can do? Or am doing wrong? Should I syringe her water to her? More or less? Also I have 7 other chickens. I added rooster booatwr to their water. Will that keep them from getting it too?

It does sound like wry neck, often it's a vitamin deficiency and correctable by supplementing vitamin E and selenium. Here is a link with info and a video at the bottom showing how to help them eat and drink if neccessary. There are several reasons it can happen, best to check the dates on your feed bag and always get the freshest you can, the vitamins deteriorate over time.
