    Turkey with bad legs, what can I do?

    I’m not really sure what kind of turkey she is, I just got her about a week ago from a family friend, and he isn’t sure what she is either. Thank you, I will try to work with her more and more on exercising and getting her out. I will also start treating for leg mites as soon as I can, I’m...

    Turkey with bad legs, what can I do?

    So I recently got this poor female turkey from my dads friend. He could no longer take care of her and kept her in the coop almost her whole life because he had a Tom turkey that would abuse her (that’s what the scar on her head is from) he was feeding her moldy food and she hadn’t had clean...

    Hurt foot can’t walk!!!

    I never found and wound, but her back toenail on that foot got broken off very short, I’m thinking that getting possibly infected is what the problem was.

    Hurt foot can’t walk!!!

    After a few days of B-Complex and soaking her foot is much better. She is beginning to hold it like a normal foot again (not closed all the time) and the swelling is almost all the way down. The only thing that is still swollen is her back toe on that foot, but I’m hoping that’ll go away with...

    I am really trying to avoid the vet if it’s possible, I am kinda tight on money at the moment.

    I have been isolating her for about the past week and a half, her legs and feet feel relatively normal other than the swelling.

    Hurt foot can’t walk!!!

    @Wyorp Rock She has not started laying eggs yet and as far as I know was not vaccinated for Marek’s unless the feed store vaccinated them. As of now she is on an organic pellet layer feed. She is housed with 5 other chickens her age and none of them have problems like this but I don’t know what...

    Hurt foot can’t walk!!!

    I have a 5 month old chicken who can’t walk, and I don’t know what’s wrong. I just woke up one morning about a week ago and she was limping so I isolated her from the flock but things are only getting worse. Now she doesn’t even use that leg at all, she just lays down all day and her foot is...

    DIY leg bands?

    Alright, I just bought small zip ties for my chicks, and when they are full grown I’ll hopefully be switching over to the reusable plastic poultry bands!

    DIY leg bands?

    Alright thank you all, for those wondering this is what chicken string is! I think it also goes by the name of cooking twine.

    DIY leg bands?

    So I’m getting baby chicks within the next week and I was wondering if I could just use some tied chicken string as an Id until they got big enough for the adult band. I want to be able to tell which chicken is which, but I don’t want to have to buy different sized bands for my babies, could I...
