Seems that I have seen several posts that sound like the one I'm about to make. I'm hoping that someone has an idea or two.
In the last several months we have had 2 (possibly 4) birds that have died from what appears to be a common ailment. The birds begin limping... This lasts for a day or two before the chicken is unable to use a leg and becomes essentially immobile.
From what I can tell, it doesn't appear to be a contagious disease. In reading others' accounts, I am on the side if some type of mycotoxin being the cause. Does anyone have any treatment ideas or similar experience?
I live north of Atlanta if that is helpful.
Thanks!
