    Bruising around head?

    To everyone that helped, I just want to say thank you! My chick had been doing much better and then we noticed she's been really unsteady on her feet the last week or so and I would let her out of the cage and she would walk around the house to stretch her legs.

    Bruising around head?

    Its like a good size guinea pig cage. Very spacious rather than the little box she was in. I use pine pellets for cat litter so I just used that for the night. And she's liking the extra room.

    Bruising around head?

    Hi guys, first time posting. So I noticed yesterday that my 4mo old chicken has like a greenish color, like bruising around her head. Doesn't seem painful when I touch it, just doesn't want me to hold her head. Back story- we bought her at 2 weeks, was doing good and I had her and her sister...
