I will check it. Idk if she can extend and rretract them. I've only seen her walking on the hocks and sometimes she lies on her side a bitDoes one leg seem worse than the other? Does/can she extend and retract both legs? If a bird slips a tendon, they will often waddle on the hocks like your video. To check if the tendon has slipped, hold the hock (knee) between your thumb and index finger like you are pinching a pencil gently. Twist it gently like you are rolling the pencil between your fingers. If the tendon slipped, you will feel it snap back into place, like rolling a rubber band into a notch. If the tendon slipped it will probably continue to slip, even after it’s been put in place.
