    Why is she walking like this?

    Unfortunately I don't remember since it was a couple years ago. I think I gave her it in the morning and evening, and gave her a few syringe fulls of it each time. The syringes were 5mls I think. I know I didn't stick with a certain dose. I also kept a container filled with it for her to drink...

    Why is she walking like this?

    She most likely has ascites, or some sort or reproductive issue, and sadly at this point you probably won't be able to cure her. All you can do is offer supportive care measures. You'll want to get an 18 gauge needle and insert it into her abdomen to drain the fluid, as to give her relief...

    Why is she walking like this?

    Poor girl! By the looks of it, her abdomen may be bloated which is probably causing her to walk like that. Could you go feel her abdomen (abdomen is underneath the vent behind the legs) and compare it to some other hens?
