I think she’s too attached to her brother. She almost just hurt herself trying to fly out. She made it on top of the water drinker and then her leg got stuck, luckily I helped her before she hurt herself. She’s happily eating with him now. I was reading the first link you sent and I tried moving his leg around because it said I would feel it snap back into place. But I didn’t feel it do that. So I think you were right about the bone deformity, I just don’t understand how it could’ve happened so fast. Do you think I should bring him to the vet somehow? I have one within walking distance of my house, I just don’t know what I’m going to do to convince my mom. Don’t get me wrong she loves and cares about animals, she just doesn’t see the point in helping something like a chicken.Watch her if you out her back to make sure they are not hurting her. The swelling is normal with leg problems, possibly a slipped tendon. Here is some helpful info on trying to fix a slipped tendon and sling chairs:
