Hello,
I noticed today my welsch harelquin hen, Lulu was limping today. Her waddle was off. I was able to pick her up and feel her belly (thinking it may have been an eggbound issue), but nothing felt abnormal Her legs look fine too...nothing weird.
Has anyone experienced something like this, and what might I do? She is almost 6 moths, and she and her "sisters" have been safe, and from what I think, happy and secure.
Any thoughts? I am hesitant to go right to a vet just yet.
Felt pelvis of all 4 of my girls today (2 WH, 2 Choc Runner) and all seemed to pass the Metzler finger test for wide pelvis (laying indicator). I have been getting two green and one white egg for the past two days. Otheriwise it has been one or two green ones a day.
Thank you!
