it could be a muscular problem in her leg. do post a video

they are beautiful tolerant birds. they will fare well.

well at least shes eating. it is probably muscular or neurological. she might bring herself out of it. she probably got into a tangle of wire or ran into something and pulled a muscle. make sure she gets good vitamin supplements mentioned above and she will probably be fine. has she layed any eggs?

1 yes replace the moist bedding, 2 is it possible the moisture could have come from their waterer?

yes i think those are way too large to come from a chicken... they almost look like mosquito larvae to me...

i suggest getting her some calcium tablets. that should help with the soft shells. do you have any pics of the eggs?

she is probably just itchy in that spot with the feathers growing in.

do you feel anything strange where its bent? will she let you straighten it? sry i have so many questions!

ok i should remember to come back on

mine love to do that when im in the middle of a zoom meeting. lol

shell re integrate in time. ive had that happen with a hen of mine as well

that my friend is the egg song. perfectly normal for a hen

can she straighten out her neck by herself? does she even try?

hey is it possible this a pecking order issue? does she ever get picked on?

can i possibly see a picture of the wound? it could just be them being sassy. they dont like being cooped up (heheheheh)

im not sure..... can you update me on their living conditons? like what is in the brooder, the bedding, where you store the food... things like that

you can give them some small live mealworms if you can get any. and once they start growing their big girl (or boy) feathers they can be let outside for a while every day.

shes perfectly fine. sometimes hens burst a blood vessel whilst laying there eggs. and the white crust is probably just some dried poop. it happen to mine all the time. i just give them a little butt trim they dont mind it. as long as she keeps laying eggs she is ok to go back

is this your first batch? they could be defective? or maybe just dehydrated?

yes i put a rock in the brooder with them and they loved to cannonball off it as well as roost. i made them a wooden perch when they got more experience with their feet.
