CHICKEN PARALYZED

[Zoohtasim]

I have 1 chicken named Swiddy. She had one chick which died because it got paralyzed in it's legs and refused to eat. Now she is paralyzed in her legs but still having food (very little)

Her legs are very stiff and she tries to walk on her knees.

Take a look at her foot, can it be bumblefoot?

She just sits like this and drinks water. Just water. Not even her favourite worms I picked for her. Just a LOT of water.
PLEASE help me, I don't want to lose her! I raised her from when she was a little chick! I'm trying really hard to not cry now!

@oldhenlikesdogs @Eggcessive you help maybe?

 

[cavemanrich]

The feet do not look to have bumblefoot. I get a sad feeling that she may be heading for the Rainbow Bridge, I know how much you want to do everything possible
Just make her as comfortable as you can

Marek's disease I bet. Untreatable. I would euthanize to stop her misery.

The paralysis showing up in two birds seems like no coincidence at all. Mareks is my first thought.

What's her output looking like?

Oh no, I am so sorry @Zoohtasim I really hope it is something curable and she gets better

As per outputs, she just laid an egg. Any possibility she was egg bound? Cuz now she's eating as well and drinking, she barely walk 3-4 steps then falls, but huge improvement from the morning's absolute paralysis.

Egg shape is weird. Huge bump in the middle making it extremely wide. I'm praying that it was egg binding and nothing else

That’s entirely possible. She must’ve been very badly eggbound though. Update us in her recovery if it happens.

Just a thought, I have a Vorwerk in recovery @ present who lost her balance, & later became paralyzed after a bout of coccidea. I have been giving her vitamin supplements & now she is upright, slowly regaining her balance & walking a few steps @ a time without mishap. Vitamins may be worth a try.
