Hi all, I’m looking for help and advice from anyone who has experienced this with their chickens.
This is one of my Silkie hens who was completely fine yesterday, and this morning she is limping and it seems like she’s pushing her leg out, almost flat on the ground. It’s as is something has become dislocated or maybe she is lacking something that I need to give her?
She is very friendly and doesn’t seem in pain, just seems uncomfortable.
Also, I picked her up and felt both legs, didn’t feel anything abnormal so I’m just at a loss and looking for any advice for my sweet girl.
Thank you!

Tried to post the videos but it won’t let me, so I screenshot a part of it where you can see that she’s almost walking on her hock instead of her foot, her leg is laying flat.
