This five month old Easter egger quite suddenly started walking on her hocks, with her left foot curled under. Overnight. She got around that way for a few days, but then her leg went straight out stiff, and she cannot walk at all. I have separated her from the flock, but now I do not know what to do. The flock has had Purina pellet food, dried worms, scratch and table scraps, but I do not know this one bird's choices. She is not lethargic and has a good appetite.
This presents classically like Marek's disease from what I read, but also like B2 deficiency. Next steps? Some say euthanize. Others work for a cure.
