Hello, I have a silkie hen and am trying to figure out if she is injured or sick.
Initially she was a bit wobbly on her feet but was able to get around. Within a few days she has lost her balance, she will fall forward or backwards. When I hold her she has good grip in both feet and ‘runs in the air’ with both. She is trying to walk around and can with me supporting her but is just when she is left alone. She is eating and drinking normally and in herself does not appear a sick chicken, only when she loses balance. Currently I have brought her indoors. I was just wondering is there anything I can do to help her?
