Hi everyone. After researching I finally figured out my chick has a slipped tendon. She is a bantam chick and is 3 weeks old now. I initially thought it was splayed leg so I taped her legs up but now know it is slipped tendon. I can feel the tendon on the inside of her hock instead of the back...

Thank you yes there is some good info on there, makes me think it has a slipped tendon but I can’t feel a tendon moving around out of place. That being said it is a small bantam chick with tiny little legs, so the tendon could be small?

It has helped keep its leg under itself but the leg is still twisted outwards.

I have a 1 week chick with something wrong with it’s leg. Looked like splayed leg so I used vetwrap to straighten out. Upon further inspection I’m not sure if it’s splayed leg. I was thinking either slipped tendon or dislocated or it could be splayed leg. I’ve never dealt with any of these so...

Thank you! Do you know if there’s an egg withdrawal for giving her aspirin? Did you wrap her stumps with gauze? I have vet wrap and cotton pads I could use. I’ll also have to look up vetericyn I’ve never heard of it. She seems in very good spirits so I believe she will make it through this. I...

I have a hen who must’ve got frostbite on her feet over the winter. She was acting normal until a week ago when one of my other hens was attacking her so I quickly scooped her up to check her out and saw her foot was bleeding and coming off!! Her whole foot is black and of the other foot only...

Went to check on him today and he doesn’t sit under the lamp anymore but his comb is very dark/purple and inner eyelid...

Hmm I’ve never used liquid bandage I will have to look into that. And yes right now I don’t have an incubator, just my broodies hatching for me😁. This is my first hatch off my silkie hen and this egg just so happens to be the only fertilized one she was setting on, so I’m trying all the more to...

HELP! My egg cracked on day 19! My Silkie is hatching this egg for me . One week ago this egg has hairline cracks in a circle pattern with some cracks coming off of it like it was bumped by another egg but the cracks never opened up, just hairline. So I put wax on all the cracks and so far the...

Yes, they have good heat and no past butt. I am going into town tomorrow I will see if I can find nitridrench or something similar. I also hope we don’t lose anymore.

I bought 5 Orpington chicks between 1 and 7 days old. All at different times I noticed one chick under the lamp not really moving just sleeping. Won’t open its eyes and won’t eat but will drink lots when I put their beak to the water. Their crop seems large and squishy like it’s full of air or...
