    Bloody Vent or Belly Button (?)

    I have a new hatchling who is only an hour old or so. It was being picked on for a while, and once we saw blood, we pulled it out and put it in it's own space under a chick heater. Is this the vent or belly button? Is it treatable? Thanks in advance!

    Infection??

    I'm not sure why I didn't get notified that you commented. I'm sorry! The foot fell off. I have been in contact with a number of people who have had happy, healthy chickens with one foot. :-) She is doing well!

    Exposed bone!

    Does the bone seem too exposed? I worry that any skin trying to heal around it will be prevented from closing up. And also infection in the bone. :/

    Exposed bone!

    I have a hen who lost a foot to frost bite. The foot finally fell off (took 7 weeks) two days ago. Well... the bone is exposed and is bearing all of the weight. It’s pointy... my gut tells me it needs to be shaved or something. Can anyone help?! additionally, she has been sitting with her mouth...

    Infection after loss of toes from frostbite?

    Hi everyone- our pullet who had frostbite on her feet in January has since lost her toes on one foot. I’m not sure what I should be looking for as far as healing goes. I’ve been changing the dressing daily (they fell off on Sunday). Today, her legs feel a little warmer than usual, but she had...

    Frostbite

    A week ago, I posted about a pullet who had frostbite on her feet. They have changed quite a lot through the past 9 days and I’m seeing clear signs that some toes are going to fall off. I’m wondering, though, if we should expect any others to fall off as well or if it’s looking like some will...

    Dry blood in nostril

    I posted yesterday about our pullet getting frostbite. I appreciate everyone’s help. During the whole ordeal, Peggy had a bloody nose. Now, she has dry blood inside one of her nostrils. Should I try to soften it and clean it out or let it be? I’ve been bothering her so much with her feet, that...

    Pullet frostbit feet- amputation questions

    Ok thank you so much. She is inside, yes. We have been changing out the pine shavings every day. Do you think a clean towel is necessary? I don’t have any extra, so I’d have to run to goodwill or something.

    Pullet frostbit feet- amputation questions

    Our pullet was born with a bum leg and has always had trouble walking, but still made due. A few nights ago, she didn’t make it into the coop and it was under 15 degrees Fahrenheit. When my husband found her the next morning, she was frozen. He picked her up and realized she was still alive. She...
