Wry neck

[Alexacfreeman]

I’ve been giving a drop or two twice a day of selenium and polyvisol to my chick because he has wry neck but now his neck isn’t just sideways it’s on his chest. I saw this day before yesterday and that’s when I started. What can I do is that what this is and will he make it? He backs up when I put him back down and I have him isolated.

It’s twisted almost all the way around and he is walking backwards and flipping on its back sometimes but then turning back over just because of how twisted it is

Seeming somewhat better today.

It might help to give a little extra vitamin E in a soft gel, along with some other vitamins that have thiamine (B1) since some wry neck is due to B1 or E deficiency. Also, wry neck is sometimes hereditary or due to head or neck trauma. Be careful with selenium because too much can be bad. Normally just giving a small amount of egg yolk orally, it can be enough.
