Barred Rock is limping

[Idaho Chicken Bungalow]

I ended up taking her out of the infirmary and with the rest of the flock. she did good for about an hour. I just fed them some scratch all perimeters of my yard. She stayed in one place away from the flock. She is favoring the leg but not limping like before.

Okay. That's good! Do you think confining my chicken might be beneficial? She won't stop walking, running, and climbing things. I feel like the cage might stress her out, but I'm wondering if it might be better to just do it anyway so she can heal.

I think it is stressful when they are taken away, but still in sight of the flock. This was my case today. I have 8 baby chicks less than a week old in my inside brooder. Let her be with the flock. When she roosts make sure she is low and extra cushion under her. You may even get up extra early to lift her off the roost in the morning

I suggest the rooster booster b-12

Thanks! That may be easier for me to get because I think I saw it at TSC last time I was there.
