Big Girl is limping! Help me, please!

Chicken legs are a whole lot different than people legs. Chicken legs are fragile. After describing the way my chickens leg is bowing out at the knee joint and is walking miserable crooked to the vets receptionist, she CLEARLY said, it sounded like a POPPED JOINT. UNFIXABLE, and putting her out of her misery was going to be the best way to go. My chicken IS suffering. If you could watch her crippling along, it would break your heart.

Well I guess you’ll do what you have to do.

Thank-you. I'm sorry to say the others seem to be upset with me and are not respecting my decision. My chicken IS SUFFERING. If she were not, believe me, euthinizing would not be an option in this case.

Can you take a video and email it to one of us?

If she is in that much pain/suffering so bad what are you waiting for?

I've never actually emailed a video, but I can try.

The vet is closed. And don't have the heart to just kill her myself.

All you have to do is attach it...same as you would with a photo.

Look for a paperclip icon on your email bar.
