HELP!! Chick with Wry Neck!!!!!

[Annalyse]

I have a almost 3 week old silkie chick. She is completely upside down. I was able to dip her beak into the water and get some water in her. I also put electrolytes in her water (Save-a-chick). I don’t think she is able to eat. I seperated her in a different brooder with another chick so she’s not lonely. I’ve been trying to massage her neck a bit. She is walking backwards and laying down a lot. The only other thing I can think of is calling my vet. What else can I do to help her?

I hope that can help.

I would continue chick vitamins that have thiamine and others, and more vitamin E is needed, so get some human vitamin E 400 IU (180 mg) softgels. Give 1 of those emptied with a dropper orally every day. Tablets may be cheaper and can be crushed and mixed with food or water. And give a small amount of scrambled egg for selenium as well. It helps with vitamin E uptake. Try to feed the chick as often as possible, some moistened chick starter and water along with the egg. It can take days or longer to help.
