We have an old barred rock who over the last few weeks has been a bit listless but still joining the group to eat and sleep just slower than usual. She is at least 5 years old (not absolutly sure as we got her from a friend) and hasn't laid for over a year now but is still one of our girls. The other day while running to get her food goodies, she kind of tripped and stumbled. Today she looks like a drunk with wobbly legs etc.. but still eating very well. She looks totally healthy except for her unsteady behavior. The others are all fine, they get a varied diet and roam around the yard all day, plenty of fresh water etc... It almost looks neurological but not being any kind of expert I'm stumped. I do know that all of our birds were vaccinated as chicks so I'm guessing that Mereks is probably not the problem... There are no signs of injury or trauma and she is basically keeping up with the others despite her problem...Any suggestions?
Thank you
