    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    He’s doing good! Still the same, having a pretty hard time getting around. He’s been trying to use him wings to propel himself forward and it seems to work occasionally. He cawed for the first time the other day too! It sounds sad and a little sickly, but he still crows haahha. I don’t think...

    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    Of course, I would never ever be able to put him down. He’s the sweetest chicken. I’m totally willing to pay for his surgery, but I’m just not able to at the moment because it costs 1,500$. I’m only working a part time job and it barely covers my bills I have. I wish we could keep him as an...

    Help Easter Walk Again

    Easter has been the best chicken and best friend to me since he hatched. He’s sweet, curious, and adventurous. But unfortunately, Easter badly fractured his knee and needs surgery. Yes, he is “just a chicken” but he is also the sweetest rooster you’ll ever meet. Today, Easter tried to get out...

    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    Yeah my bad, I think she said elbow or something haha. Regardless, it’s the like elbow-like knee-like joint on his leg that bends. Wish they’d decide on a name cause I’ve heard it been called so many things!😂 I’ll definitely look into the wheelchairs and slings! Thank you for the suggestion.

    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    Your story about your rooster is amazing! I’m so glad you were able to help him :) The problem is that the best thinks this happened 2-3 months ago. He has sores on his stomach from the ground scraping against it and he’s very malnourished. We gave him to a friend (my mother’s ex-boyfriend, you...

    Chicken’s Leg is Twisted? He can’t stand

    We took him to the vet the other day and found out that he fractured his knee and tore a couple ligaments. Surgery would be required and it starts at 1000$ :( Not sure what to do. He seems happy so I don’t want to put him down but I just don’t know

    Thank you! I’ve heard that the lack of vitamins might be a main cause too! Definitely going to incorporate vitamins into his feed from now on. Good luck with your chick as well! :)

    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    I looked into it more and realized that most likely what my baby Easter has is a slipped tendon. I noticed a little while ago and the man that was watching him for me brushed it off saying that he was fine. I was in a rush so I didn’t look into it at all. I’m so terribly regretting that now...

    Chicken’s Leg is Twisted? He can’t stand

    Thank you so much! We got him home and he mostly lays, even when he is eating or drinking, it’s very hard for him to even try to stand. His leg is twisted at like a 90 degree angle. He cannot walk without the support of his wings to keep himself from falling over. He doesn’t seem like he’s in...

    Chicken’s Leg is Twisted? He can’t stand

    I’ve had this chicken since he was a chick. I had to give him to my friend for a while because we were moving and wanted to get settled before we introduced him. We’re picking him up today and noticed that he cannot support his weight for the life of him. It’s his right leg that’s like twisted...

    What breed is my chicken?

    We rescued this chick a couple of weeks ago or something and I tried asking what breed or gender it was but everyone was saying that it was too early to tell. I don’t know if anyone will be able to tell now or not, but does anyone know what breed or gender this chicken is? We think that he’s a...
