Hen limping REALLY BAD

[Kiki]

I’ll go check for bumps, She is not vaccinated, in May she’ll be a year old, no one has died recently

When was the last time you had a bird die?
Also when was the last time you brought a new to you bird home?

I would say early December we had our rooster die, we bought 2 silkies I isolated them but one showed neurological problems so we took her back to get a new one and isolated that one for a month

How do we deal with this. I had the sick bird in a dog crate in the chicken coop because I thought for sure it was a sprain

how is she feeling poor baby

Her eyes are still bright and she just wants cuddles.

I don't know/can't tell you how to deal with it.

I would try to contact local people to see about where you could get a necropsy performed. Me personally, I would want to know exactly what I was dealing with so I could move forward.

The rooster died from starvation as the poor thing wouldn’t let me near him and didn’t eat the new food he also had bumble foot, the silkies we got are vaccinated for mareks

Sorry forgot to add this info I’m running on 3 hours of sleep lol

No offense but that's where you went wrong I believe you can have a non vaccinated and vaccinated flock because the vaccinated will give to the none vaccinated
