    ISO pigeon eggs

    A mix is wonderful, I am not picky about the breeds at all, fluffy legs sound fun too!

    Wont straighten leg, help please

    In the first 24 ish hours you can pop the tendon back in place and brace it, but after that I still haven't found a way to help the chick other than keeping it away from the other chickens and if it's walking on it put a padding of some sort so it doesn't open the wound and get infection

    Chicken can't stand or walk, paralyzed??

    Does this chicken have a third leg on the chest? From the photo on its back it kinda looks like that. If so that might be a start to those problems

    Baby chick emaciated and not eating—keeps jerking her neck and chirping in distress! Help!

    If it ends up being a hen I will probably keep it inside and train it to wear diapers if that is a possibility. I am willing to go pretty far in for this little baby
