Sudden Loss of Leg use

An update to this :

She is back to being a happy, noisy, moving chicken with new little feathers and is loving life. Thank you all for your support. The marmite worked in a pinch but of course I wouldn't recommend anyone use it long due to the salt content. She wound up very thirsty so I had to monitor water intake closely when she wasn't able to stand. The vitafit worked like a charm. It's encouraging her feather growth as well.

I am still trying to get her to take the mash. I let everything soak for 24 hours so it's .. pretty much less hard ( I can break easily with my finger nail ) but definitely not like a boiled consistency where its able to be "mashed" or looks like some cooked oatmeal. She just looks at it and/or spits out whatever she picks up. Picky girl.
 
So pleased she has picked up, even if she is being awkward about food. I'm sure you will figure that out. I would blitz the soaked grains in a food processor and then mix increasing amounts with scrambled egg to slowly get her used to it. Maybe add some favourite pieces of fruit of veg to the grain mix in the food processor like strawberries or leafy greens or melon/papaya etc to make it more appealing.
