    Sick Silkie

    I'm really hoping somebody can help me solve the mystery of what's going on with my little silkie. She developed wry neck symptoms at 27 weeks. It was mild thankfully, but she had the classic dropping of the head. I brought her inside with my other silkie hen, because they get along very well...

    Wry Neck Advice

    In your opinion, how long would you give a chicken with wry neck before giving up? Im running out of hope and things to try. I haven’t noticed any improvements. I’ve been helping her for 20 days now and I don’t think it’s a vitamin deficiency anymore.

    Wry Neck in a Chick

    Symptoms My barred rock pullet was 9 days old when I noticed that something was wrong. Her little neck had begun to twist back and upwards, leaving her fighting to stand upright, and forcing her head slowly and mercilessly around until her throat faced the sky. It didn’t happen all at once, but...
