Thank you guys for the advice and chuckles. I'm glad someone can laugh at my day yesterday, I sure couldn't. Today was a good day! Freezing cold and lightly raining so I locked mamma and chicks in the coop for the safety of the smaller one and added vitamins to the water. The smaller one was spending a good amount of time under mamma today (whereas outside being feathered it doesn't) and seemed to walk almost fine for the first min or two after coming out but then had the same problem with the leg until after it went under mamma again. I will be keeping an eye on it. I spent most of the day canning the chickens from yesterday and got to use my new (gift from last Christmas but never used) giant pressure canner. The thing is picky and holds pressure a whole lot better than my small one. I didn't dare to touch the truck today for anything, I wanted a good day today.
