My pet Rooster cannot walk?

Question

I have a 2 month old pet Rooster who was born healthy. After about 2 weeks of life he began to slowly develop a problem using his legs. I took him to the vet and she gave me supplements for him and suggested putting him in a sling so he would stand in the normal position and build muscle.

He is starting to hold his legs out straight and forward and cannot walk. He is otherwise healthy, eats well and is not in pain.

Any suggestions on what to do? I'm very worried about this. Do I give him the best life I can or is it unfair for him not be able to live the normal Rooster life?

Thanks

Answer 1

I would take him back to the vets.

If he is doing what you say hes doing and cannot walk he will develop other problems.

like back or joint problems.

take him to the vet and they might be able to help and sort him out.

Good luck

My heart is with your rooster. :)

Answer 2

He`s got rickets,have you kept it in the house his whole life?

It`s caused by the lack of sun witch gives them their vitamin D,,,He`ll have to be killed or let him suffer his whole life.

Sorry
