Ok so my sweet chicken Foofoo won't walk. Well she will but she kinda limps then lies down she will legit lay on the lawn and eat. She got hurt by the other chickens a while ago and wouldn't walk then but I fixed her up and now she is like this could she be hurt? Everything looks/feels fine thanks!

Hi,

I was looking for some more help about our 5 months old chicken that has lost mobility. Maybe these other post's can help you too?
Can you include some more information about how your chicken is today? Also, did you separate her? Might be the best if she is the lowest on the pecking order because of the injury they may hurt her more.

Good luck

She may have gotten re injured.... Is she still laying? If not, she may be getting too much calcium if you feed layer. She may have Gout or arthritis. Ascites are also possible.
