Hello! I have a young roo who somehow got a leg injury. This happened about a week ago now. I have had him confined in a 24x24x16 rabbit cage for going on 4 days. He is still eating and drinking, poo is normal as well. Not sure exactly what happened to cause the injury. His leg gives out when he walks. His injury seems to be getting worse instead of better because now it's like he can't put weight in it and he's falling over when he does. Nothing feels like it broke, I'm thinking (hoping) more of a sprain/strain or a slipped tendon, but not sure. Hoping for some advice/help to get him better! He's such a good boy and young, only 4 months old. Poor guy has had it rough! When he was little, we had to nurse him and one other baby back to health from a respiratory infection, now he's hurt. Any help is appreciated! We have given nutri-drench, raw egg yolk, extra meal worms, and lots of love! I have a video, but not sure how to post it, if I even can.
