Chicken seizures?

[AmericanDwarfChicken]

Unfortunately, my 1 year old pekin bantam has been having issues. Every time she drinks water her head retracts into her body and will continue to look up for minutes on end. Would be great if someone could help

Could you get a video or picture of her doing this?

Does she only do this when she drinks?

Does she hold her head any differently, even slightly, at other times? I'm wondering about a vitamin deficiency.

What feed is she on?

If it is a vitamin deficiency try a Vitamin E pill and B complex for a few weeks.

she will also do this when sleeping, eating and walking. she can shake rapidly at times, but it is rare. she only looks up when this happens. she is on Prosper chicken layer crumbles that we buy at Theisen’s.

forgot to say this, she gets bullied a lot by my sussex hens and they usually go for her head.
