One of my hens (White Rock cross) has a funny gait! She started a "goose step" walk with her left leg only. She walks like she can't bend it. She hopped ALOT last week, but she manages to keep away from the roo, so I am not REALLY worried, but it is concerning. She has no problem with being picked up or me feeling the leg from stem to stern, so i am perplexed. Should I limit her "exercize" or just let it go but stay watchful. (BTW, we call her Limpy now
) Any suggestions would be appreciated. Checked for bumble foot and other common ailments, no signs of injury. Could it have been the weight of the roo breeding her?
