    Broken foot, or bumble?

    This is my Jersey Giant rooster’s foot. Two of his toes are doing this, and it terrifies me? He doesn’t seem to be in pain, so if it is broken it must be healed already. Could it be something else? Any help would be appreciated!

    Is this a badly healed broken foot? Is she in pain? Help!

    I volunteer at a local history park with their chicken coop and just got an e-mail that they are thinking of euthanizing my favorite hen. She's an old Barred Cochin that I call Macy Gray. :( She has a bad foot and no one is quite sure what happened. I asked the director and she said the hen was...
