I have a splash silkie roo that has one leg super stiff and limp toes. He flaps and flips around and is active during the day even eats and drinks a bunch, but sometimes gets stuck on his back with both legs in the air and can’t seem to get back on his feet without human help. Also his brothers and my other young roosters attempt to mate with him aggressively bc they’re learning and he can’t get away from them.
Is there anything I can do for him to survive and get better, does it sound like definitely mareks, and/or should I just cull him so he isn’t suffering?
He can’t get to the cuddle puddle at night so usually sleeps in the middle of the run by himself and I imagine he would freeze to death once it gets cold anyways, so I’m leaning towards culling.
