Hi all,
i woke up this morning to find one of my chickens sitting in the corner of the run. When she walked over I could see that she was over stretching both legs. I checked her joints and the all seem to be moving fine and she is not in pain when i did it. I have isolated her but have no idea what to do next? Could it be a calcium problem? They have plenty of grit though.

Thanks for any help.

Hi it could be Mareks disease, the symptoms sound very simular.
