URGENT PLEASE HELP!

[CL13]

Hi all! We found my 8 month old cinnamon queen hen wedged in a pallet 2 days ago and since then she has not been acting right. She has been laying on her left side and will not get up at all to walk. She is somewhat her normal self and has still been alert and talking to us when we go in the barn. We have moved her to her own bin. She is eating and drinking still.

Do you have any idea how long she was stuck? She could have sprained her leg trying to get out. Any obvious injuries to her legs or hips?

You could try to make a chicken sling so she can sit up and not put weight on her legs.

Some info in this thread may give you some ideas.

Agree with this.

In addition, I'd be giving her Poultry Cell or Nutra-Drench water that'll help with healing.
