I had a pullet go lame twice a couple months ago. She got so bad the second time, we put her down. I did not see any issues with her feet.
I now have a 19 week old Australorp who is having walking problems. She has struggled with worms but has been treated with Corid and goat wormer. She has been doing just fine until night before last. She is at the bottom of the pecking order. When going to roost, she was the last one in. She got knocked down and I think she injured her leg. She slept in a nesting box that night. Yesterday she was walking with wings down and unstable. I put her in the tractor by herself so nobody would pick on her. He feet look fine. Nothing appears broken. I just don't want to be overlooking something.
Thoughts? Today she does not seem better, maybe a bit worse. She has limited roaming area and can't be bothered by others. She is eating and drinking.
