This duck is about six months old and he was injured when I got him him resulting in the leg that goes up. But the other side, I believe he was stepped on, sticks up in the back more than it should. I’ll add a video, and listen to it with sound on because I am talking about what I see with him...
Hey I need advice asap. I have a chick who I think is about 7 maybe 8 days old. Hatched with no issues or health concerns. Long story short I discovered it had curled toes so I taped them and went to bed and in the morning I found him laying on his stomach with his leg stretched out backwards. I...
I wasn't able to find anything that quite addressed my problem, so new thread. I'll post pictures tomorrow when I check on her again to see how she's doing.
TL;DR: I have a young adult quail with a dislocated toe and mild bumblefoot on the mend. Am I gonna pull this poor baby's toe off putting...
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...
One of our hens (5 years old) has an injury of some type, may have happened jumping down off the roost or mounted by our large rooster. She seems to be able to stand upright on both legs, but she isn't able to maneuver her right leg, she just pushes it in front of her and hops on the other leg...

Something transpired today where as one of my quail has dislocated their ankle/knee (whatever you decide to call it) and it seems completely unable to move, toes included. I know it is that joint because I felt it and it was loose. I love these birds but they're in pretty rough shape, I just got...

Hello, everyone! I wanted to get some advice on treating 2 doves, each with different strange things about them. Both were just treated for lice infestation with 8in1 spray- possibly oversprayed.
Symptoms of Dove #1
Inability to roost properly without some time and extra room; if indeed unable...
Widdle is a 15 week old chicken we rescued at 1 week, not sure breed, yesterday I noticed her limping. I’ve always been checking her feet because she likes to lie down in the grass in general, so I’m certain this is new behavior.
In looking at her toes one seems twisted , and the joint swollen...

Hi, I’m new here. We have been incubating Lady Amherst pheasant eggs, and yesterday five hatched. Today, the last hatched. We had to help it because it made very little progress on its own after many hours. When it hatched, we noticed one of its legs was orientated weird. It won’t sit right, and...
Hello all,
I had to heavily assist this Coturnix Quail chick in hatching, and now I see why. Her poor little leg is jutting out at an unnatural angle, and I suspect it’s dislocated.
I do have access to veterinarians, as I work with them, however none of them deal with poultry. So I feel like...
She’s been in the brooder but hasn’t been able to get both feet under her, we had to boot her feet due to curly toe but it seems as though one of her legs is broken or dislocated. It’s swollen and the joint is huge and unaligned and rough, she can only drink if I give her a syringe and is really...
We have a chicken who we believe was born with this problem. One leg will go completely backwards and she hobbles around. Any ideas what to do? (Sorry for the vertical video. I didn't take it!)
I rescued a little poult from the hardware store, the others were walking all over her. I took her home in the hopes we can fix her leg and she can be a new family member.
So here’s what’s going on with Little Foot’s leg. When in the store it was out sideways and she wasn’t really walking on...
Stripes is about 8 weeks old. She was fine until last Saturday when a red tail hawk attacked her. She has a good sized flesh would under her left wing. We cleaned that, treated it with Neosporin, and isolated her in a crate. Over the last few days she has been getting up and moving around...
Hello
I have a 5 week old wyandotte who might have a dislocated beak. I was holding her and my neighbors puppy got out and put her entire head in her mouth. There are no cuts no bleeding but she is shaken up and now her beak is off set, hanging open and she won' eat or drink.
Does anyone have...
I just recently got a chick from a friend and it appears to be injured/crippled. It is a four-week-old but it's stunted as it looks like it's only two weeks. After examining it for a bit I think that the problem is due to the tendon on the back of the hock. The original owner said that both legs...
Hi everyone,
First, a little bit of background: I have a little mallard duckling that is the youngest out of 9 ducklings we currently have. The rest of the ducklings are mixed Pekins and we hatched them ourselves. The mallard was several days late for hatching and got stuck in the egg so...
