    They are being fed mostly your average layer crumble, but we do give them treats.

    Bantam chicken limping! Please help!

    Hi! I'm probably not the most knowledgeable person on this site, but I'll do my best. Are there any scratches, chafes, cuts, or wounds of any kind? Any abscesses or bloating? Its possible that she has bumblefoot. Could you show a picture of the underside of her feet? In regards to the foot...

    Super pale hen - Please Help!!!

    Her keel bone is extremely prominent. Her abdomen seems fine though. Her stance seems normal too apart from being wobbly. The past infection was some infection near her vent.
