I posted these pictures to a Facebook chicken page I am a part of. These bumps came on quickly, only a couple of days and she just started limping yesterday afternoon.

Hi! I hope someone can help!
We got our chicks on Saturday night. We've kept them in their mobile coop and run the entire time so far. This morning, not one would come out of the coop! I took some treats to entice them, and they came out for that. But they quickly went back upstairs.

I just had to share how excited we are!!!
My husband has really been so amazing building this coop/tractor in the last two weeks.
We are in our final pregnancy days with our 6th child and he was so sweet to do this for us!
Our kids are SO excited!
We live two doors down from our chick supplier...
