Well today she’s acting totally normal and standing on two feet. Gonna chalk this one up to a probable rough landing from the roost and file it away in the overreactive newbie file lol.
No pictures yet, since right now it would just be a chicken standing on one leg haha. I’ll post some pics of her foot closer up when I grab her to investigate. I think I’ll lower the roost too, just to be safe.
I wondered if that’s all it was. That would be great! It just seemed to come out of no where and she’s doing it so often and always the same leg, so I got a little paranoid.
One of my pullets appears to be favoring one foot/leg. She runs around just fine, no limping or anything. But when she standing still she lifts one of her feet off of the ground. She’s not keen on being held so I thought I would ask you fine people for suggestions on what all I should look for...
Just over 3 months old. This bird had the earliest/brightest comb of the 5 chicks I got, so I’ve assumed rooster for a long time. The other roosters in the flock are so clearly identifiable as roos by now that I’m starting to wonder if maybe this is a little gal after all! Any thoughts are...
