If the cause is nutritional or environmental (most common in young birds): Age group affected: Usually 3 to 6 weeks in broilers or young pullets.
With quick intervention (within days): Lameness can start improving within 1–2 weeks. Full recovery may take 2–3 weeks, depending on severity and bird age.
