    Help!!! Chicken has large hard growth on foot

    Hi Tania888, what did this end up being. My hen has similar growths but the vet doesn't know what it is! Tried antibiotics as it is suspected to be an infection but it didn't stop the growth.

    Hen with strange growth on leg, yellow scabs then going black.

    Thank you so much for your help Amy Jane! I really appreciate it. The yellow is quite dry not like human pus, is that right? Would it be OK to use Betadine for humans on her? There's quite a bit on her lame foot, should I do one foot at a time? Thank you, yes she's a tough old thing.

    Need advice with injured quail toe

    Need advice with injured quail toe

    Need advice with injured quail toe

    Hi, I have had quails (japanese quails) for 4 days now and they are still young about 3 weeks before laying. I just noticed one of them has a toe which is bent 90 degrees. The joint where it is bent is a bit swollen, other than that she (I think) is walking around fine. I would like advice on...
