    Bumblefoot?

    Yes I have isolated her. And she is eating and drinking which I know is a good sign I massaged all around her foot and it kinda feels like a small callus but it doesn't really feel like it's full of puss. All the toes are just as swollen and it does look slightly bruised and definately red.

    Pics of the larger ones. The 2 in the first pic are the meaner ones. When I remove these 2 all of the rest integrate just fine. When they are all together it seems they all just smash up into the nesting boxes.

    When I bought the coop it said for 10 Chickens I have 14 now. I won't let them out when I'm not outside with them being smaller I am afraid a hawk will eat them.

    Ribh's D'Coopage

    The black and white chickens, are they female? And what breed. I got one from my daughter's class and it looks just like that. Comb and waffles. So I thought it was a male. But now I am wondering if it might be a female as well.
