Chick leg problem. Need advice/support.

[dandymandie]

Thank you so much

btw this is NOT a symptom of cocci.

Thanks. When we first brought her home she was laying on her side with legs stretched out. I saw a vid posted here with similar symptoms and leg out but that was a while ago now. I am leaning towards slipped tendon or leg deformity now. Thank you so much!

 

[Kiki]

she may just need a little extra TLC and meal worms!

 

[dandymandie]

Oh that is sooo good to hear. Thank you! We are definitely going to get a chicken sling going on for her too! We appreciate your help so much!

 

[Kiki]

you may want to separate her for a little while in a sling to see if it helps.
keep her away from the meanies..so she can relax and heal.

Hen party every night here! We are even starting a mealworm farm for the ladies. Again thanks so much for the info. I have been feeling guilty watching her struggle that way. She's def sleeping with us tonight.
