Hi,
A few days ago my chicken started having issues with her right leg. She is 2 years old and has never had any issues before. When she steps, her leg pops outward at the knee area. She is not acting like she is in pain but something is clearly wrong. Does anyone know what the issue could be or any ways to help her? Thank you.

I cannot see the problem in the video, but she may benefit from supporting the leg joint with a support. It could be that she has a loose joint or twndon issue. Resting the leg and wrapping it with vetwrap or tape in a normal slightly bent position might help.
 
If you look at her right leg in the video, you can see that is pops outward when she steps with it. Thank you for the help. It is REALLY appreciated.
