    Stiff leg?

    Okay it seems like there is lots of leg injuries going around, but I've yet to see one like hers. It started maybe a week or two ago. Possibly from a overly excited young roo. She was kinda waddling around low to the ground like she was egg bound or waiting for a rooster. I checked her, no egg...
