I have a special needs chicken who essentially has only one good leg. She clumsily hops on one leg to move around but generally lays on the ground most of the time. Her other leg is deformed and stretches straight backwards. At times she somewhat uses it for balance but not well. I currently have her in a puppy pen with some friends - 4 new ducklings who will be moving out soon, a young Silkie, and a new chick I had to take from its mother. I am hoping she will bond with the Silkie and maybe the chick but I don't really want to keep them indoors forever more. I was hoping to build a small coop with run or even buy a pre-fab one that could allow these 2-3 chickens to be out in the main run with the big chickens but still separated. It would have to be something at ground level that she could easily navigate. There's no way she could navigate a steep ramp or stairs, for example. If it's ground level, I can put down straw or shavings for them to bed down in.
Thoughts? Advice?
This is her as of today... She is a little under 2 months old now.
