So I had a thread going on my hen but it has gone another direction and I am hoping to get any advice if anyone else has seen this or any advice at all! Chickenzoo has been wonderful to me but isnt sure what it is either so I was hoping someone else will recognize it. It seems to be getting worse and she is my little sweetie 
She is a 16 month old silver laced wyandotte. She was limping for about a week and it slowly got a little better until one morning I noticed, she was basically back to normal! That same day, I came home from lunch and she was limping worse than ever! UGH. That was about a week ago and she has not gotten any better.
She is definitely in pain because she doesnt walk much, limps terribly, and lays down a lot. If she isnt laying down, she usually is just standing on her good leg. I have been giving her aspirin but I dont think it seems to be helping. I have had her confined almost 24/7 for the past few days. I have looked EVERYWHERE and felt everything but nothing feels abnormal (though I know little to none about things like this) All I can see is the redness on her leg
I asked my vet who I give thousands of dollars to with our 10 "normal' pets but she said no to taking an xray. I told her I wouldnt expect an answer and she can charge me whatever. Maybe we could just send it to someone in the cities that may know. They had no pets there and were dead.... like talking and laughing around in the back dead. But she still said no. I just left in tears I was so mad.
This is her leg 3 days ago
This is it today
