Hello,
I have a 3 year old Columbian Wyandotte that is limping pretty badly on her left leg. I took her to the vet last Saturday and she weighs about 5 pounds, is not egg bound, does not have bumble foot, has no broken bones and no mites. He put her on some anti-inflammatory medicine for 3 days but she is still limping pretty badly. She is eating and drinking fine, wandering around the back yard but she does rest a lot more often. The other 2 hens are not giving her any problems - thank goodness.
Has anybody had something like this happen to one of their chickens? Any words of wisdom for how to help her feel better?
Thank you
