My buddy Maverick suddenly developed Wry Neck this week, poor guy. Wry neck can happen in people and animals, and is a loss of control of the neck muscles. It is due to either a vitamin deficiency, or an injury. So, we’ve been giving Vitamin E and Selenium gel three times a day, along with hand feeding him to make sure he gets enough food/water.
Luckily I am home for the next week, so hoping we can get him turned around and on the mend! He really enjoyed a field trip out to the garden today. You can see he holds his head at a bit of an angle, and this was really hard work for him…but he went back to his brooder and is having a rest now :-)
