Our Moran was on the floor of the coop this morning She was sitting upright but and not moving
She was fine last night and behaved normally all day yesterday
She is alert but seems sleepy
Her left foot is perching but the right foot seems week and she won't /can't perch on it
She flaps her wings and they seem strong
She doesn't lay regularly but her vet looks normal though I don't know how to feel for an egg inside
I have never wormed my chickens
They get 16% protein feed but they do free range most of the day
She is usually the last her off the perch but today she was on the floor and the rest of them were still on the perch when I went to let them out. So I suspect that she fell off the roost after what ever happened to her though she is a large heavy hen so I can't rule out that she injured herself due to falling or jumping down on the side of the perch that is more narrow.
I am going to separate her and put food and water near by and wait for any thoughts or advice.
