Injured wing????

[Caroline1601]

Does this look broken? I noticed today that my chicken is holding out her left wing odd. I've picked her up n felt around n she doesn't seem bothered however u haven't tried to straighten the wing. What are your thoughts?

This is the exact same thing with my girl Dizzy. What happened to yours? Any advice?

I took little Lola to the vets. The vet took a look n concluded it was either fractured or broken. They could of xrayed to confirm but charged the earth n said if it was broken pinning it would be expensive! The vet prescribed anti inflammatories n advised that either way the wing would heal however maybe perminantly deformed if broken. After 4 days of giving her the anti inflammatories the wing went back to normal n she's now fine. All in all it cost me £36 which was more than I paid for her in the first place but it did the trick!
