keyhole kate Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I have just found Merryweather on of my original 2008 girls is unable to stand and I have also noticed that both her feet are twisting inwards could she have suffered a stroke of some kind ? Any one had anything similar or offer any advice. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I recently found one of my bantams lying on her back in the run, unable to get up or stand properly when I picked her up. The vet thought she had either had a stroke or was suffering from a brain tumour and, sadly, she was PTS as there was no prospect of a recovery. The only advice I can offer is to take her to the vet asap if she is no better in the morning. I do hope she will be ok. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 It could be something like a stroke. Sadly it doesn't sound like something that she will recover from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 One of my old girls suddenly couldn't stand or walk recently. I had to have her PTS and the vet said it felt like she had a large mass inside her . Sorry, it doesn't sound good . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
