    Pullet cannot walk & now has loose poo

    Pullet cannot walk & now has loose poo

    I wanted to update everyone. Despite all of the care I gave it, the leg horn died today. I tried to cull it but couldn't, and my dad was coming over soon to do it for me.

    Pullet cannot walk & now has loose poo

    So here is the backstory. None of my pullets would use their roost. They liked to pile up in a big pile on top of a very low table. One of my Dominiquers (jelly bean) was limping about a week ago. I figured she hurt her leg in the pile. She was still walking but had a limp. She has continued...
