Crowing
I have a 5 month old buff orpington and i believe she had a dislocated hip. She’s limping, not putting pressure on her right leg, and it’s kind of backwards. I don’t know what to do in this case.

Me too. It was really hard on us because me and my bf both felt a really strong bond with her more then the others. We decided to get her cremated, so we still have herSometimes the best things to do are the hardest.
I'm happy that she's out of pain now
I’m going to get a second opinion by a vet that actually cares for chickens and barn animals. The vet there was texting an exotic animal tech that is from a different placeAre you going ahead with the surgery? If not, I think you should seriously consider putting her down. That sort of injury isn't going to get better without major intervention and will greatly impact her quality of life, not to mention chronic pain. It's quite severe.
We unfortunately had to make the decision to put her to sleep Right after that vet visit, she declined in 2 days and her wings were starting to be paralyzed too. She wouldn’t eat, wouldn’t drink, barely responded to us, she wouldn’t move. It was heartbreaking to us and i didn’t want her in any painHow is your chicken doing?

That is how you know there are TRUE chicken lovers out there.Me too. It was really hard on us because me and my bf both felt a really strong bond with her more then the others. We decided to get her cremated, so we still have her
Some say it is silly. Because some raise meat and layer birds. I raise pet and showbirds. Though I dont get my birds cremated, we do bury them.Thank you I didn’t know if it was silly to others getting her cremated because some might be like “it’s a type of poultry” but it felt like the right choice for us and she was our pet
