Hi y'all!

[jlwm]

What a lovely forum! I'm a relatively new chicken mommy - we got our Barred Rocks last spring and we love our birdies.

I am really worried about them however - one will not use her left leg at all, and just sits in the coop all day, but she eats and drinks.
Yesterday, I noticed another one of the girls walking with a stilted gait, her comb droops, and her legs are pale (as opposed to golden, like
my other girls).

Any experiences/suggestions would be very welcome! I'm very worried about my chickies and am feeling pretty helpless right now.

Thanks!

You will love it here!

I'm not sure what your problem might be but you will get more help with the problem if you make another post under the Emergencies/Disease/Injuries section!
