Hello!
I brought home a frizzle satin a few weeks ago. The rancher was unsure of her exact age, but suspected her to be about 5 months old- I think she may be younger based off her feathering.
On Friday I noticed she started walking oddly. She always races around the coop and is hard to catch. On this particular day, she flapped out of my hands (low to the ground) and ran off. Shortly after I noticed her walking in almost a crouching manner. A few normal steps, then she would crouch down. This has gone on through the weekend. If I call her over for grubs, she will run normally.
She is eating, drinking and pooping. No panting and other than the strange crouch walk- acting normal.
Do you think she sprained a leg? Could she be egg bound? There was a rather large egg laid the first week I brought her home that I suspected was hers. Photos attached of what her strange walk looks like.
