    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    Thank you for the info. she is able to turn her head more today and shook her head and body and stayed up right for a bit before falling over this morning. I will try her in a chicken sling and see if that helps her. If she does have Mareks Disease is this contagious to my other chickens? We...

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    Sorry for the delay, yes she is eating and drinking and pooping normally. She is almost 12 weeks, she is a Cochin/Barred Rock Cross. She is able to move her legs, however the one leg that looks bruised she curls her toes under and seems to have a hard time straighten them out, but will do it...

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    Thank you for responding, I have her in an isolation box. She rested comfortably all night, was up eating when I looked on her, however still falls to the side. Hopefully this video can be viewed now as I followed your suggestion, thank you.

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    If there is no improvement later tonight or in the am when I feed, I am going to put her down...she doesn't appear to be in pain...this is just not fair for her :( Would love some insight...all of my other chickens are healthy and fine.

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    UPDATE: I was feeling her legs as I noticed a dark bruise...one of her legs at the hip joint seems like it may be out of place or broken? I know this may keep her off her feet...if this is what is going on can her leg be splinted or is it just rest and recovery? She is eating a drinking like a...

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    Thank you, I will do that and continue to monitor. I have electrolyte water for her already, she seems like her normal self, minus the balance issue. She was in with other young pullets, so the chances of being injured would be slim, but possible. I already treated for coccidiosis and dust...

    Young Pullet Not Able To Keep Her Balance

    I have a young pullet that I found this morning laying flat out, at first I thought she was deceased. She was breathing but unable to move. I brought her inside and put her under a heat lamp as she felt very cool to the touch. A few hours later she is alert, sitting up with her feet under...
