Thanks for your input! It really hasn't sucked the joy out of the chickens. I just hate not knowing what is wrong when one of them is ill or passes. This girl is a little mixed breed and looks like a barred Turken. She is just adorable! It's just difficult since she's still eating and drinking...

I'm not sure if it's neurological or what it is. Chicken illnesses are so difficult to figure out. We're leaning toward letting her cross the Bridge. I just wanted to get some thoughts from others on here. Thanks for your input!

Hello everyone! This hen is from some that we hatched last May. One day in August she started walking on her elbows. So, we separated her and brought her up to the garage and her own area. She went back and forth between being able to stand and not being able to stand. The toes on her left...

Hello everyone! Well, my pullet is doing much better. She is up and walking and her toes are in the correct position. It seems that her one leg is not quite "right". I'm wondering if it's dislocated? She doesn't appear to be in any pain. We have been giving her Merrick's Blue Ribbon Poultry...

As far as dust baths, she and her 10 "siblings" didn't really dust bathe in their area. They were enough younger (a month to 6 weeks) that the others they were with and just felt more secure in their area. When you say your chicken finally walked after a "good bit", I'm assuming you mean within...

Hello! A few days ago we noticed that one of our 10 week old pullets was walking on her elbows. When we picked her up we also noticed that her toes seem to curl. She seems to want to keep her left leg more straight out and won't/can't really stand up. She is a bit thin too. Up until now she...
