My rooster is walking weirdly?

[HatchingAPlan]

I have a young rooster who has a problem with his legs. They don't seem to be broken; he seems to be able to stand without pain. There is no swelling or redness, but one of his legs is angled outward. He never had problems walking before and I have no idea what could have caused this and I'm not sure what to do. Do you have any suggestions how I could help him??

It could be a slipped tendon or a sprain or strain from jumping down from the perch and landing wrong.

Run your hands up and down both legs and see if that leg is swollen at any point. Also look for greenish bruising. It could be that he needs to stay off it for a bit so it can heal. If it's a slipped tendon, it may or may not go back in with manipulation, but you can try.
