Bird falling over

[Wynette]

I've got a bird that's unable to walk from some mystery issue...I've got her in a dog kennel in the barn with a heat lamp on her. I prop her up between two bricks so that she's upright...it really seems to help with her eating and drinking (I've got those little kennel cups that attach to the front of the cage with food/water in them). So, if she's falling over in the kennel, you might try propping her up with a brick. Good luck with her - I hope she pulls through.

I put in a little cage with straw on either side of her propping her up and it seems to be working nicely. And probly helps to keep her warmer.

Do you know what's wrong with your hen?

No, I don't. My girl's been in the dog crate for almost 6 weeks now. I take her out a few times a day and hold her. I hope she pulls through....it's nerve wracking.
