HELP, old leg band to tight on chicken

[nivtup]

How is she doing?

Yippie!!!

I know she is feeling better, was it infected?

It may take her awhile to recover - I idiotically did that with a rooster (I'd put the band on myself, so I can call myself an idiot!). It took him about a month to start putting his foot down again. But he's walking normally now, though the injured leg is still larger than the other.

He was still going strong, though. He'd hop around on one foot, keeping Mr. Junior Rooster in his place!

No it wasnt infected, to tell you the truth I thought it was gonna look a lot worse then it did. I had the first aid kit ready with everything in it that I would need but really didnt need anything....VERY lucky!!! I felt like I should put something on it before I set her back outside so I sprayed some of that Blu-kote on her leg....WELL, that was my 1st time using that stuff...lol...I have some blue fingers now
I can tell she will limp for awhile though...poor girl BUT she is on the raod to recovery!
