Hello,
I need some advice on how to deal with my bantam Rhode Island Red.
She's not at all heavy, smallest hen in our flock, but has been limping around for two days.
I checked for bumblefoot, no signs of that. Her roost is probably less than 1 foot of a jump. Not sure if that is considered "too high."
I felt her leg but it doesn't seem to be broken. She doesn't show any signs of being in pain, but she just refuses to put weight on it and only sits on a roost or in a nesting box all day, except when eating or drinking.
Would appreciate advice, thank you!
