Only Child Chicken

[jessy08maus]

Hello,

My chicken, Hei Hei, got attacked by a dog a week ago, and has been declining ever since. The dog didn’t seem to do any permanent damage to her physically, but she hasn’t laid an egg since that day, has had (what I assume is) gleet, and will no longer put weight on her right leg. She is still eating and pooping (granted it’s a yellowish tint) but won’t willingly move.

Please help . She is our first chicken, family, and pet

She might have a broken egg in her.

When one of my hens, my best layer, was chased by a neighbor’s dog and injured, she stopped laying for several months, and immediately started a stress molt. Can you post any pictures of her poop? Does she have any missing feathers around her vent, red skin, or a bad odor that makes you think she has vent gleet?

She laid an egg after the encounter, but none since that one. That’s the only reason why I don’t suspect a broken egg… unless it can happen on its own
