Chicken limps when running!! HELP!!!

[SCOUT123]

I'm not seeing anything suspicious from the photos you've posted. Are you able to hold her and get photos of the underside of her feet? That's what we need to see. Is she still limping?

She's doing a lot better today!! She limps a LITTLE only when she wants to get somewhere really fast. Should she be allowed to take dust baths and scratch?

I'm glad she'd doing better. Yes, if she doesn't have any open wounds, I would most certainly allow her to do both. Do you think she may have strained a muscle somehow (getting off the roost or in an altercation with a flock mate, etc.)?

Thanks! It was probably the day I had to lock her into the coop for a day. She could have landed funny and strained a muscle. She can There's no way she could have gotten into an altercation as I only have 2 chickens and they're inseparable

What are the symptoms of sprained/strained legs, though?
