My name is Jerry and I'm new. Here to pick up new ideas and learn more. My roosters legs been paralyzed for 4 days. Anybody out there know anything about this. He's eating and drinking but cant walk. Any info will be appreciated.

Glad to meet you, Jerry. I am so sorry about your rooster. How old is the bird? You might offer vitamins and electrolytes, which can be gotten at farm supply stores or online.

You also might try posting your problem to the emergency/illness forum, to see if you get more and better informed answers. The folks here are mostly looking to greet new members. Include the age of the rooster and any other info you can think of that might be useful.

Best wishes with your chickens and all your plans!

Hello, welcome to BYC.
1. How old is Jerry?
2. What do you feed your flock?
3. Have you brought any new birds into your flock?
4. Can you post a photo of his legs and the bottoms of his feet?

You might want to Google Marek's disease to see if he has any symptoms of this disease.

I hope your rooster gets better.
