One of our chicks this year seems to have had a congenital leg problem. Always had weak legs, always sat down a lot. Turns out this chick was a rooster and now that he’s gotten quite large the leg problems are severely hampering his mobility. Problem is at the hip... his legs were never splayed like straddle-leg but he always looked kind of bow-legged and now it’s as though they pop out of alignment at the hip with every step. I’m guessing he’s in pain and we’ll need to dispatch him but I wondered if anyone had seen this before and if there’s anything else we could do.
