There is an avian vet down the road from me but my mum says he is quite dear, it's also not a good time for my mum as she's very stressed and is on stress leave from work after dealing with a difficult boss. She also said she can't afford the vet for my chookCould you put the link of your previous post, might be a clear picture of your little hen, and wearing sling as well.
Is she pooping normal?
As she is not wanting to be held now and not laying eggs as well. This is not positive.
As long as she is eating is a good sign, like BigBlueHen 53 says have a friend with her for company and support, might be a little area where she can stretch her legs. She will do what she can, monitor her closely and make changes to help her.
Like Chickengr says it might be nerve injury and it takes time to heal.
Might be let her float in a warm bath of water for a little bit, in water she will float and this also give her some exercises without further injuring her legs. Afterward dry her with a towel and blow dry her so she is all dry.
If you have epsom salt, then give her an float epsom salt bath, just float in water, not having a bath. Epsom salt relax her.
Is it possible to ask your parents to take her to the Vet?
Please let us know how she is.
I am thinking of your little hen and you.
