Can you get some vitamins with riboflavin today, or can you feed her some chopped liver, just a small amount daily? Her legs appear numb, so it may well be Mareks or riboflavin deficiency. There could also be pressure on her sciatic nerves from something internal, so I would insert a finger just inside her vent to feel for a stuck egg. Has she laid eggs recently? The tail pointing down might be a sign. If you feel a stuck egg, you can give her some calcium. Human calcium tablets, Tums, or a ground egg, shell and all can be given to her.

She’s been like this for 4 weeks now ? Would there still be a possibility that she is egg bound ?Yes that's fine. Just so you are aware, a chicken can certainly get egg bound on her very first egg.
No. Reproductive disorder possible, timing seems right age considered. Go with the B Complex now though, it won't harm her and could really help if she's deficient. She's a beaut!She’s been like this for 4 weeks now ? Would there still be a possibility that she is egg bound ?
