so i have a chick (about 12 weeks) who was limping a little about 4 days ago. checked over saw nothing. the next night she was beginning to seem lethargic. so i brought her in. by the next morning she could not stand on her own. she is bright , normal breathing but cannot stand. seems off balance. her feet/toes are not completely paralyzed. her toes are doing some curling. her legs will shake some when i am holding her. she sits back on her hocks then flops over. her crop is not emptying from what i can tell. she is still eating some, not drinking a ton of water. her stool is normal, no parasites. no lesions on feet. she is from Sand Hill Preservation. i am adding some pics. any other thoughts? should i cull her? all of the rest of the flock seem fine at the moment. TIA
