Hello everyone ,one of my Australorp hens 2-3 years old is not well, she starting having problems walking, taking a few steps forwards then will go backwards, she is now also losing her balance and will fall over not able to right herself.She is still managing to eat and drink , poop is normal, I've put her separate from the others in a box and when I go check on her she is wanting to fly out.I let her have a wander today and she would make a little head way walking forwards her buddies ,before going backwards , sometimes whilst sitting resting her tail will lift up and she will lose balance falling forwards and not able to right herself .I've had chickens for about 10 years and never seen anything quite like this , normally they just get sick ,quickly go down hill and we humanely put them down.I'm not at the stage I want to do this if I can save her as she is still so alert and eating , has anyone had a similar experience like this,I am totally stumped???
