Ok a Lady I know gave Me a Chicken. The chicken acts fine but when She walks her leg and foot turn inward . It seems she has little joint muscle the joint is almost flat . She said the Chick is about 12 weeks old and it's a naked neck pullet.very friendly..
 
It sounds like a slipped tendon or a leg bone deformity. Do you have any pictures?
I don't tonight .I will take some in the morning .I really like her the lady was going to "set her out somewhere "in other words she was going to toss her out somewhere and let something kill her ..ugh!! I guess that's why I like my Chickens more then most people

Can't rest with knowing .is there a way yo fix a slipped tendon? If this is what's wrong with her . I don't want Her to be in pain but like I said she seems to be ok. She can get in and out of the house and go into the lot which is about 2 1/2 feet off the ground with a walk plank .thanks
