Buff orp all of a sudden not able to walk , wings wonky, alert - comb red, eating, drinking some - vent clean - laid egg this morning! Help!

I sure hope something works. Since she just laid a perfect egg, at least you don't need to consider egg binding, a supreme health crisis. But do take heart. We've had chickens presenting with similar hopeless-seeming symptoms and they've recovered.

I have a year plus buff Orpington who I found on the ground of the coop unable to walk. Brought her in. She’s not able to balance and walk. Wings seem to be reacting weirdly. She’s eating , drinking , vent clean , comb red , but can’t stand up. Pretty yucky and smelly diarrhea (green) yesterday. Have given poultry cell, Strike , yogurt …don’t know what to do . If this is disease …

Hello, how is she doing now?

She snapped out of it!! It was like 5 days not really moving - and then she just popped back up and I put her out with her friends. I had something strange go through my flock. I treated all twice over with Corid and added some vitamins and electrolytes to water. So far , all have survived!!! Thanks for the follow up!!

I honestly think it was bad feed! I threw out all the suspect feed (Purina flock raiser) and went back to the Kruhse Super Egg .

I'm glad she's doing so well! It was probably a good idea to throw out the suspicious feed.
