    Limping silkie

    She won’t stand on the left foot or put weight on it, so I can’t get a picture of that. The feathering covers that toe, so you wouldn’t be able to see anything anyway. I trimmed her nails yesterday. I could trim more but I cut her quick once and now I’m scared to go much further. Bottom of...

    Need help to identify external parasites

    I could use some help from someone who has experience with chicken parasites, as I do not. Looks like sand in our Silkies’ feathers. These are eggs i’m assuming? Highest concentration is at their lower backs. Thanks for any help!
