Goldiegirl2

She has not been wormed and her wing and leg do act funny. Is there a cure for what you are talking about? She hasn't pooped since she's been like this but she does pee
 
Goldie is now eating on her own. I have given her antibiotics and electrolytes she however is not walking out clucking yet. NOW WHAT?
 
Well update on Goldie2. She has had her electrolytes and antibiotics. Eating drinking and pooping good but she still will not walk. I don't know what else to do. It's been a week today
 
Can she stand at all? Does she move the bad leg? Are her toes curled? There is no cure for Mareks disease if that is what she has, but chickens will all have different symptoms, so not every case is the same. At least she is eating and drinking for you. Here are some good links to read about Mareks:

Idk what to do for her. One day she was walking sms staying to peek up them the next day she's barely walking b not clucking or eating some drinking
 
Sorry about your hen. If she is still eating, I would give her vitamins--either poultry vitamins in water, or dissolve a B Complex tablet daily in her water, or give 3 drops of PolyVisol baby vitamins by mouth each day. Sometimes vitamin deficiencies can cause leg paralysis.
