Chirping
Hi my rooster is having a problem walking and standing. He gets all wobbly and does not seem to want to put weight on his right leg. When he lays he lays with his legs out to the side. When he walks he slowly hobbles around. The first time I checked him his hock looked bruised and a little puffy. I flexed his legs that made walk a little better. He is the only one that is like this and was fine a day ago. Today he was sore but no bruising I separated him and gave him food and electrolyte water but he did not want to eat or drink. So I brought him in. While he was in I bathed him and checked him for parasites but found none. So I soaked him in epsom salt water for 10minuts to see if that would make his leg feel better. So far he is standing better, is more alert, eating and drinking. What does this sound like to you and what eltse could I do to help him?
