Yesterday I was having a load of gravel delivered. The noise made by the truck and the dumping gravel scared the chickens. They jumped all around, banged into one another and now one of them is injured.
She is a 5 month old EE. She won't put any weight on one leg. She is eating a little and scoots herself around her cage but won't even try to stand. I was going to give her a few days to improve, but I'm not very patient.
How can I tell if she has sprained her leg or if it's out of the socket. Is there anything I should be doing for her. Will this require a vet visit?
Any suggestions?
