    Help. Chick leg twisted tibia. Can I help it?

    Update: This is new to me! I've been massaging and trying to work the leg. Putting slight pressure on the scabby looking part. I don't know if I'm doing this right! I'm so afraid I'm going to break something or make it worse. Any suggestions? It's eating, drinking, hopping along, very active.

    Help. Chick leg twisted tibia. Can I help it?

    Thank you so much for your reply! All my researching didn't turn up slipped tendon. This may very well be the issue instead. This chick is 5 days old. I've been giving vitamin B in water. I will try massaging and see if I can help it.

    Hen ate cupcake liner! Is she going to be okay?

    Help! My son had a cupcake outside while the chickens were running around. One of my hens snatched the small cupcake and liner from his hands and gobbled it down! Is she going to be okay? Will she pass it? Is there something I need to do?
