Hi to Everyone, I'm very new to Back Yard chickens. My husband, recently retired, wanted a hobby. Raising chickens. We have many chicks. Got them at two days old and now they are eight weeks. Two weeks ago I lifted a wood partition door to let the chickens run from their smaller coop to a much larger one. The door slipped from my grasp and poor Cinnamon got caught running through. It severely pinched one foot. I held her and cried and cried. She's been kept separately form all the other chicks. She suffered a bruised foot and now after two weeks she's doing much better and wants to get back with the others. I don't know if she's ready. She is still favoring the foot. Husband thinks she can go back. I'm not sure. Anyone else have same problem - chick with severely pinched foot?
