her injured foot.... middle (long) toe feels swollen and the one on the very end is feeling rather limp and kinda under the toe next to it. You can't see...
I'm not really certain... She cries when I try to examine her. I do not see any open wounds. They're on shavings so I know it's not splay leg. She uses the one leg just fine but holds her right leg out and doesn't like to use it. Haven't seen her hold it up...just out and mainly straight. Just...
I have a 2 week old baby silkie that I awoke to with a hurt leg :( She was fine yesterday and I'm not sure how it happened. Anyone know what I can do for my little bitty? I feel so bad for her/him. Pretty sure she's in pain too She cries when she's trying to walk about. I have her in a donut...
I have a baby silkie that's almost 2 wks old. Noticed s/he was limping and not moving around as much. I'm sure s/he's in pain. What can I do to help? I tried putting the baby in a donut shaped cloth so she could rest her leg but she keeps getting out. Not sure what happened to her leg or if...

No I don't have a clue :( She just wasn't thriving I think. Not too sure. I was hand feeding her and giving her water too. She had moments where I thought she just might make it, but she didn't in the end

I'm still a newbie silkie mama but I'm gonna guess roo. Because his comb looks slicked back and not so poofy. Also think I see some longer feathers in there (forgot what to call them lol)

Love this kind. It should seal Baker Farm as it was a liquid container to begin with. I have these bottles and use them often. Also...hot glue works wonders on this kind of stuff. I've made a few diy feeders or waterers with it and haven't had any issues :) Happy chicken crafting
