Limping, Panting Hen - Long Story

[lbgreenfield]

I'm not sure, really. I can't think of anything else that would tick even a few of the symptom boxes. Perhaps moving her into a dog crate for a spell messed up the pecking order enough to cause her to become afraid?

That is my guess as well. The crate was out in the run with everyone else but I think it messed up the pecking order and everyone is singling her out bc of her injury now too.

I would give her a once over for bumblefoot. It is all I have to offer.

I have already checked her for bumblefoot (have had one case with another chicken before). No scabs or swelling of both of her feet. The limping leg feels warm but there’s not cuts, bruises, etc. that I can see. I think she hurt it getting off the roosts in the morning so we lowered the bars and added a step for her to use. Thank you for your reply!
