Dog Attack!

Thank you! She eats well and drinks, I've been making her eggs in the morning when I make my sons breakfast lol. I take her out to visit with the rest of the flock (supervised) every once in a while and they do great. She hobbles and limps around. But doesn't seem to care as much as I do. She's very bonded with another chicken that looks just like her so I wanted to make sure they knew the other is still here! I don't feel any breaks or a slipped tendon she just doesn't want to put weight on it but has been trying to use it more so fingers crossed she just needs more time. I might try and splint it just to help keep it in a more normal position. She let's me move it around no problem and she will stand normal if I put it in that position...

Aw it sounds like she’s getting some much deserved spoiling during her recovery! Hmm interesting about her leg. I hope it’s just a matter of her needing a little more time to heal, but even if it ends up being a permanent disability I’m certain with a tentative owner like you she will do just fine if you do end up splinting it, be very careful about not wrapping things too tightly. Have you been able to find any splinting guides? I know of one but I’m not sure if it has any leg guides in it.
