    Yeah I'm starting to understand there's not much we can do, but just extra attention is helping her so that's a relief. She's laying an egg every 2-3 days roughly, no trouble there.

    I'm guestimating that age, as when I got them 4 years ago (the dumping wasn't recent) they weren't as big as they are now (they reached maturity so to speak). Awesome, I'll do this tomorrow :)

    Thank you everyone for your replies. It helps to have others who care and understand our love for these lil dinosaurs. She is being kept in our garage at night with plenty of clean water and food right next to her and in a small coop outside in the day, resting a lot, no further decline. I...

    Haha yeah, some rainbow lorikeets. They tend to come around summer time to get a feed.

    I'm trying aspirin for 5 days to see how she goes. I gave her some previously for 2 days but didn't see limp improve (which doesn't mean it wasn't helping, she may have just been happy to sit all day)

    Thank you so much for the time you've taken to type this out. I want the outcome to be that we just take extra care of her and make sure she's comfortable,this gives me some hope, your gals sound so sweet. Hmm yes.. A chicken wheelchair may be in her future... Thank you.

    Yes I thought it looked off, thank you for the help. They do however roam free in the yard and eat the grass so much we don't need to mow it.

    Hmm, how long can a sprain effect them? Can I put her in a cast of some kind?

    Mmhmm, she is no less alert than usual. A bit stressed from going to vet, but she's her usual chatty calm self. I had her in iso for about 5 days to stop her from moving too much, but didn't change much. She's just sitting down pretty much all day near the food/water. Thankfully none of her...

    Thank you for the welcome ☺️ I'm not sure if vet checked specifically for it. I've checked for bumble foot but honestly I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking for.. Her ankles look more "swollen" than her flock mates.

    She's been like this for about 2 weeks, not getting that much worse though. The problem I think is that she didn't want to move at all or put either leg down when the vet handled her, so they said both legs were affected (that she wasn't sprawling her claws out when her feet touched the...
