I have a Pharaoh quail bird, one year old, in a pen with others hens that developed a limp and then couldn't stand without trying to balance itself with wings tipping from side to side.  Upon inspecting her, both leg knee joints were enlarged/swollen-- not soft, but hard.  Sort of weird; any clues of what this is about? thanx.

Read this the other day and meant to try and find the info....forgot !

It may have been an injury ?

Cull the bird. If you have the time & money, take to a vet and see what they say. (or just call one)
