    Silkie nails

    Eventually got a picture of my little beaky's feet. They have got a lot less scaly... Took this after I smothered on Vaseline... How do these feet look to everyone? What about the nails? Are they too long? Do you think she's still got leg mites

    Bald spot - moulting or fighting?

    I have silkies and during summer they all went through a moult. Mine lost more around the neck area... And the new feathers came through fast.., there was no blood although recently my hen at the bottom of the pecking order has blood nears stumps of feathers on her head... Iv always suspected...

    Silkie nails

    Probably being overly Cautious now they've been hit with mites... I think prob because it's mild here in the uk

    Silkie nails

    I will try and get a pic to post.... Maybe they just look long to me? Iv been looking more since treating them for leg mites. My littlest (but prob most bossy) silkie is suffering from leg mites at the moment, the treatment seems to be going well but she's still lifting this when pecking around...

    Silkie nails

    I only have 4 and they have a small run but I do let them out to scratch about the garden daily in summer (but not so much in winter) with weather and dark nights. I'm a bit scared to cut tbh....

    Silkie nails

    Hi all, I'm new to here (and had 4 silkies r 2 years now). Recently just discovered 1 had scaly leg mite, so currently treating with Vaseline and some powder (seems to be doing the trick!). Thing that worries me now is the nails... Should I cut them? And of so how
