Hello guys, so I hatch some pekin bantams two days ago and I noticed one chick had a problem with its neck. Im no expert but I think it may be a wry neck. The problem is that I think that he isn't eating or drinking, and whenever I bring him out of the chick brooder he cries until he gets back in. The way he walks is very wierd, he sort of walks in circles. Im not sure what to do and time is running out. Can someone please help me resolve this chicks problem. (Why is it always the nice ones that have the problems or become a rooster?!)

Thanks

Here are some pictures:

Hard to know. Something else could be wrong and she's failing to thrive since she's not eating/drinking on her own.
That's where you come in - working on hydration and getting food into her to see if she will thrive. PND can help give a boost, vitamins are used as therapy to help with neurological symptoms.
 
Unfortunately, its too late. The problem is I am currently going through corona symptoms and I was too tired to do anything. The problem I get to just to feed my flock is very exhausting. But, its nature, theres nothing we can do.
:hugs I'm sorry to hear that, I hope you feel better soon.
Do you have a friend, neighbor or family member that can help you?
