I got a bantam Indian game pullet only yesterday and wen I brought her home I put her on the grass. She walked a bit but not very much. As the day went on she started walking less and less and now she just stands there. When she does attempt to walk she lifts her legs very high but cannot actually move forward. There's no visible inguries on her leg. On one foot she is able to grip her toes but on the other foot the toes seem a bit weak and she can slightly grip them. . She can stand normally, just not walk. She is eating and drinking normally. Any idea what's wrong with her? Could she have sprained her hip or something?
 
I hope you have kept her in quarantine. Could be Mareks and it's very contagious. It can spread by their dander in the air. I really hope it's not. I would take her back to the person you got her from and disinfect the area she was in.
