GOING IN CIRCLES

by Maddy
(Maine)

I have a 2 month old chick and I've had her for only a month now and she is showing weird symptoms like tilting her head back and forth on either sides and walking in circles...im not sure if its from a head or neck injury from when she was young or if it could be anything neurological...?

Hi Maddy, this could certainly be either of the things you mentioned, and possibly the signs of disease.

This chick should be isolated away from other poultry, supported with TLC, and watch for similar signs in any other chicks or chickens you have.

Neurological problems could be caused by injury or disease.
