Well my girl that hurt her leg a month ago hasn't improved. She lays down a lot but still eating and drinking and pooping normal and does manage to get up on roost at night but seems like instead of making small gains on improvement, it seems she's slightly worse. Just such a difficult thing when I know so little. Thanks for your caring input!
Can you get an xray of the leg by a vet to see if there is a broken bone? I have had two different hens who suffered leg injuries. One got better in 6 weeks, and one always limped and never got better, although she hung out with her flock for a couple of years. Does she seem to have feeling in the injured foot and leg? Does she hold it up or does she put weight on it or drag it? Do you have any pictures?
