Yes!!! Please let that have been the issue cuz I hate to loose any of them but she is everyones favorite cuz she is the sweetest one out of all of them and what had me worried is that one of the symptoms of mareks is vision impairment and she has always been blind in one eye since she was little...
She seems to be doing good today she still has a slight limp but I am starting to wonder if she may have been egg bound cuz even tho she still has a bit of a limp she started walking much better after she laid a slightly (like you can barely see) irregular shaped egg
I have her in the broody breaker/quarantine box mainly cuz I didn't think she would be able to get up on the roost or down from the roost without making matters worse. Its in the coop so they can still see each other
I did look into the mareks and it talks about
"Lameness and leg weakness without any visible signs of swelling or heat within the limb."
but when I was feeling around the hock yesterday it did feel quite a bit warmer than the rest of her.
The way she move I am wondering if it could be that her leg is dislocated. On one of the times when she was walking yesterday she tripped over herself when the same leg that is giving her problems turned in ward and she tripped. That is what made me think that it may be dislocated if that is the...
I don't know what it is but she is walking funny for some reason she has a bit of a hop when she runs. And when she goes to eat or drink she sits down like she is trying to keep weight off her feet. I'm going to try and see if I can get a video of it to post.

That is exactly why I prefer knitting its not as painful on my hands as crocheting is. My mom tried to teach me to crochet but my hands just couldn't handle it. So one day I bought one of those "Taught myself to Knit" starter kits from wal-mart and been knitting since.
Have a lot of...
I love to do anything crafty I taught myself to knit a while back my mom tried to teach me to crochet but my hands can't handle it cuz I have had arthritis slowly creeping in on me so my hands being in one position for long periods of time has always bothered me knitting is much more comfortable...

One of my rocks went broody on me last week but I currently can't add to my flock at the moment because we are going to be moving so new additions are not possible til I know what our living arrangements will be so I had to break her broodiness by putting her and a dog kennel with food and water...
