foot problems

i have two coturnix quail (hens) that are about 13 weeks old. one of them, chica, is a little smaller than the other, and so i've always kept an eye on her. her behavior is rather spastic compared to her companion, but she's been like that since they were chicks. chica has a large swell on her...

I have a hen that has a bad limp when she walks and has for some time. The bottom of one of her foot pads is very swollen. We at first thought she must have bumblefoot so several months ago we attempted bumblefoot surgery. However, she never had the signature black scab on the bottom of her...

One hen and one roo had bumble foot on both feet. We started with surgery on one foot each. The roos toe healed up completely and the hen's foot was looking really good so we decided to do their other feet. I'm not sure whether or not the hen is healing. Her foot from before started to get a...

Hello chicken friends! This is my first post on this site. We have 7 chickens (2 Easter eggers, 2 barred rocks, 3 green queens) and they are about 10 months old. All of them have black scabs on the bottoms of their feet. Most are small. After researching and watching 30+ YouTube surgery videos...

Need some help with my one button quail chick's feet. I sent these photos to my avian vet, who said "Infection, likely septic arthritis, can happen from a yolk sac infection, could be from pecking or other trauma." However she is off this weekend and I haven't heard back from her about what to...

Hello! I'm fairly new to button quail. I have five adults (my male has four girlfriends and they are very happy and adorable together.) I've hatched seven of their eggs, and all are healthy, but today I noticed that one has an issue with their feet. This is my 'noisy' chick, so I'm not sure if...

One of my goslings seems to have a leg or foot problem and has been standing with its left leg a lot (as in the video). I don't know when it started, but I hadn't noticed it until yesterday (May 30th PDT) afternoon. We looked at its right foot from the toes to the hock but didn't find the...

hi folks! I live in the Pacific Northwest (Vancouver Island) and anyone who has come up to Seattle, or across the border into Vancouver or been to Vancouver island knows it’s a damp and green place. As someone who is building their coop and researching what kind of chickens to get for their...

We had some issue with the incubator, so we only hatched 2 of 12. The first to hatch is strong and healthy, but the second is small and has some leg issues. At first I thought it was curled toe, so I put on some tape sandals. Now I think it's her legs at the hip joint. The left foot is...

This is a Japanese/Sumatra Bantam cross chick who will be 24hrs old at 6pm today. Hatch was 2 days delayed after a short power outage during incubation. This was the last chick to hatch and needed some assistance. Spent most of last night unable to stand but as of this morning has joined the...
