pullet resting/walking on hocks only

[Jenfire11]

good afternoon all, i have a 3 month old gold wyandotte that suddenly became "lame" yesterday. she is not laying yet. she will not stand on her own but will put her feet down if i hold her body up. she had no problem keeping her feet down while i was soaking them in an epsom salt bath. i did clean her feet and don't see anything that looks like bumblefoot. she is moving around using her hocks and they actually look bruised (is that possible?) i read a bunch of threads here but i'm not sure any of them apply directly to my situation. for now i have this pullet isolated in a dog crate with food and water. the water has rooster booster b12 added to it. i have poultry cell i can add as well. other threads mentioned giving a b-complex and maybe baby aspirin. does anyone have any ideas or possible solutions? thanks in advance.

hmm, quite puzzling. pictures and videos could help a lot.
check her crop. Is it hanging down or feel squishy?

Here’s pictures of her feet and hocks.

Here she is when we try to stand her up

Riboflavin (vitamin B 2 deficiency) can cause walking or sitting on the hocks, and may progress to lameness. I would give her 1/2 tablet of B complex daily, crushed in food. B12 is only cobalamin, while B complex has all the B vitamins including riboflavin. Could she have been injured? Do you see any swelling of her hock joints?

Started giving b complex yesterday. Her hocks look equal. Never inspected them closely before so not sure if swollen.
I few people have told me that this looks like Mareks but she was vaxxed as a chick and none of my other birds seem sick.

still giving vitamin and baby aspirin. no marked improvement. i poked around and found a bunch of assessment info....
her "head tracking" reflex is normal, vent reflex is normal, perching reflex is absent. i think she may have developed "kinky back" as a result of a fall of the roost bar. i can't find a ton of info on that here....

Hi there this is happening to my hen but she wouldn’t even put her feet down in the bath! No bumblefoot, not egg bound.
Know this is old, but what happened to your hen? Was she ever normal again? Thanks.
