I have a closed flock and all my chickens I've hatched myself. So I'm stumped. I found this young hen stuck between the nesting condo and a wall. She was missing yesterday and maybe the day before (I have a neighbor who farm sits when I'm out of town) but I thought she misscounted. Today I came back and go searching for her and see her laying on her back in between the wall and the condo. So I grab her out and she doesn't have her legs splayed out but she can't stand up. I separated her in our sun room and fed her and gave her water. She has her legs tucked in under her and is not moving them when I touch her claws. but her actual thighs seem to move. Her eyes look fine. No ocular signs... But besides her not being able to stand up the fact that her claws look like this is making me think marecks.
