Help i think my chicken is dying

[Mollymolly3391]

today i looked at my chicken licorice and she kinda walks but then her legs sorta dont support her and she falls backwards. She looks kinda like if she were drunk. She lives in a chicken coop w five more chickens so i really havent seen if she has diarrhea or something. I carried her and shes really warm and is trembling. Only her legs are weird and she weoghs almost nothing. The climate has been varying from warm weather to cloudy and it rained yesterday. Her guts or stomach sound rumbly and shes kinda weak. Please help.

Egg bound, maybe? I had a girl die of that.

Ok don't give up hope yet… I've had some chickens do this and had no idea what was wrong but after a few days they get better…. really really strange….

Welcome to BYC! Can you post a video of her and a picture of her poop?

She may be egg bound, but I think Ducklover88 has good advice.

She may have a broken leg, you probably know your chicken a little more than the vet.

Any vet will be able to tell if a chicken has a broken leg.

Put her in a crate indoors, keep the lights low, and feed her a sick chicken diet. There are several variations out there. I usually use this one:
