a friend of mine has a hen which looks like she cant support her own weight, it started a couple of nights ago and when she walks its as if drunk, falls from side to side her thighs have no meat on at all  when she turns her upside down i.e on her back she doesn't struggle, quite bright eyed though. Any ideas please?

Hi Jelly

How old is the hen?
Any swelling to her legs?

Might it be Mareks :?

I was thinking the same. The symptoms sound like they match. :?

She has checked for lumps and seems no lumps just very very skinny legs  what can she do now, she has brought her indoors :?
