Oh I just thought too.
In relation to risk of disease etc.... we had some mice and even rats this autumn season (not just my property but other neighbours too that don't have an aviary or chickens). I don't have any now, but I am thinking, that maybe they have carried something to my property, especially if they have gone across the neighbourhood. I am not sure of the behaviours of vermin like this but I know with plagues on farms that go for miles/Kms. But not sure in urban area behaviours.
Their presence at different times - before being caught/dying, could have introduced something, e.g. MD or otherwise.
Just a thought - towards solving the mystery if it is a virus or disease if not a simple leg injury, that is slow to mend.
