broken leg?

Hello! Barley been a day but I’m back here this time with what I think is a broken leg. I’m not sure I have a silkie chicken her name is Kitty she’s about 3 months old and I walked into the garage this morning to find her acting dead and my barred rock rooster (who isn’t a bantam but we...

I found one of my 12 week old chicks last night with a broken leg. It’s definitely broken, it’s dangling when you pick her up. Can she survive and thrive or should I cull her?

My little snuggle chick, Donna, has something wrong with her legs. I noticed about two weeks ago when we brought her home from my MIL's. I fear maybe her legs broke on the ride home but I'm unsure. She walks around and eats and drinks, but she can't roost anywhere. She wobbles around but I fear...

Hi! This is my first set of ducks and when I looked into the baby pen she was running weird. Upon further inspection, it’s as if she broke her leg. Is there anything we can do for her? She’s about 3 days old. I can try and get a video if that’s more helpful. I’ve attached pictures of her leg and...

We have another chicken, whose leg is injured. Its been injured for around 2 months and the chicken is half a year old. We have had him separated from the rest of the flock ever since we noticed, and he's been inside. His leg has been getting worse recently. She used to stand with one leg...

So this morning I let my flock out of the coop to free range and my Dalmatian duck, Pongo, was huddled in the corner. When I moved towards her she ran out limping. I caught her and her foot looks fine. No signs of bumble foot or any other injury. The leg is a bit swollen and compared to the...

I just picked up 9 Coturnix quail from someone who didn't really know what she was getting. She said one had a hurt leg and was getting picked on. When I got home and checked the injured keet, I found a huge hematoma on amd around her tibia. The tibia feels fine, but something is very wrong...

I just noticed that one of my young chickens has some sort of leg injury or deformity. I have no idea how it happened or how long it's been like that. It doesn't seem to cause her pain, and it seems like she's figured out how to walk on it. What's wrong with her leg, and what can I do to help her?

i have a duckling that’s around 4 weeks old and they were doing perfectly fine up until i came home from a trip this weekend. i came home and got them out of the cage i have them in and it was just laying or sitting down. i tried to get it to stand up but it wouldn’t. when it did it just fell...

Yesterday, I took little road trip to pick up the little cross sweetie attached. I was originally told that she had, and had been getting treated for spraddle leg. I got a few grainy pictures (which I now get, having had to try and get a picture of her) and thought it looked more like slipped...

My 5-month-old Polish Bantam Rooster has suddenly started limping. At first, I thought he would trip because he couldn't see (His head feathers are very big), but I've been observing him more closely. He walks around normally but sometimes stumbles while walking and he sits down when he eats. He...

A couple weeks ago my family noticed one of our hens was limping as she ran fast. It wasn't affecting her too much, and because she mostly walks, we didn't think of it too much. Then this morning when I went out to feed the chickens, I noticed one of them was stilling sitting inside. I noticed...

I have a rooster that got attacked by a opossum two days ago. He was unable to stand and his leg is bent backward. He can still move both leg and wing on his right side but you can tell it’s not right and maybe broken or sprain. He is alert, eating, and drinking very well. His puncture wound was...

Hey everybody! I think I'm just having a round of bad luck this month in relation to my chickens, ahh. Okay, so my cochin bantam went broody (actually if anyone knows this kind very well, I don't know exactly what she is and i would like to know, if no one who answers this forum knows, then i...

Hi! I have 2 pekins and a mallard. My male pekin recently started limping and I don’t know what to do! When I felt his leg I didn’t feel any breaks and it wasn’t any hotter than the other leg. There aren’t any noticeable callouses on the bottom of his foot, so I don’t think it’s bumble foot. His...

hello everyone, today I went out to feed the chickens. We just had our first big snow, and for most of the chickens, it will be their first winter. Some of the girls finally came out of the coop today since it’s nicer weather and of course, they get very excited when treats and feed comes...

Hello, I have a 2 year old male pekin who has had a swollen, hot leg for several months, on and off. For the last few weeks it has been persistent and getting worse. We have taken him to the vet 3x now over the past year, and though the vet tries to help he is not really a specialist in poultry...
