Hello-
I've posted once or twice about this but wanted to follow up. About 2 weeks ago my pullet started limping and there was no obvious issues causing it. Fast forward to last Friday. There's a bump/scabby spot near where the scale meet the feathers and some swelling has occurred. During...
I have a little pullet, maybe 12 weeks, that has a nasty limp. Not sure what triggered it. And I see I can't post a video...
I haven't been able to find anything that I can conclusively say is wrong. Nothing obviously broken, no swelling, no splaying, etc. Since I can't tell where or what...
Everyone's favorite game! Boys or girls? They're all 6 weeks old.

EDIT: There's only 4 birds here! 2 whites and 2 darks

I've gotten three tiny eggs from one of my RIRs over the last several weeks.
Other than the teeny little eggs, she doesn't seem to be laying at all. She's not molting, the weather is fine, and she appears to be healthy. She' only a year old at this point, and her 'sister' is an egg-laying...
Hope this is the right forum...
I have a 1 year old hen that has a perpetually pasty butt. I've been Googling around and have read several possible diagnoses, but wanted to put this out to get some specific opinions and comments.
