Living with a paralyzed chicken

[M Brennen]

My chicken has started hobbling around. She had a bit of a limp and breathing issues, but doing much better. Your chicken is lovely!

She’s so pretty! I hope she gets back on both feet.

I did have a different chicken with breathing issues. She got a nebulizer treatment from the vet which helped a lot and at home I found that her symptoms relieved a little by mixing VetRX and water at the bottom of a plastic water bottle and microwaving it. I’d put it near her and she would place her head into the bottle opening and breath in the vapors. She was able to eat and drink better right after so I think it helped her maintain weight while not feeling well.

So glad that your pullet is doing well, and pleased that she has managed to get around to take food and water with her paralyzed left leg. I hope that she continues to do well.

Thank you! I’m glad as well. She made a few eggs this week and was lapping me doing yard work the other day. I just wish she had another chicken buddy to hang with. I don’t think my office zoom calls are great company for her.
