What a day! I got 8 eggs today. I've never had that many. 10 hens, I think the little BSL.s are a bit tardy but I do have that dumb broody Uggo.  I'm still pretty excited about it all. Wow! 8 eggs today.  Wow.

Keyt, she has a slipped tendon

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?

So do I treat it the same as spraddle legs? How do you suggest I do it with something this big?

You might want to do a search on slipped tendons, or post in the injuries section.

There is no treating a slipped tendon. At least from what I found when I was trying to treat a turkey poult with a slipped tendon. I braced it. I made a little sling to take weight off of it. No luck, and I knew the poult couldn't live a good quality of life with its foot turned 90 degrees, so I culled it.

I think I found a method to treat in the UPA website. You may have to tape it for a couple of days afterwards.
