That’s what I was thinking! Thank you so much

It looks like there’s a tiny scab on there up closer to the top of the bump. That dark spot. I was touching it and putting pressure on it and it didn’t seem to bother her at all

Updated pictures with clean feet!

I will bring her home and rinse her foot! I haven’t tried anything to help cause I don’t what it is so I don’t know what I could do. I will take her home and touch it a bit to see if it bothers her.

Hi everyone! I have a quick question concerning one of my hens feet. In between her toes she has this weird bump. It’s never seemed to bother her and she acts like all of my other hens but I just want to be safe and make sure it’s not something serious. This is what it looks like. I apologize...

Awesome thank you so much! We have about 42 chickens that she is grouped with. When I got her she was the only turkey left at the farm store and that’s why I picked her up. The people there said she would be fine chickens but if it’s highly recommended for her to be with other turkeys I might...

Hi everyone! I’m new to raising turkeys so I don’t know anything about how to tell gender. I have one turkey and im curious to know wether she’s a girl or a boy. I say she cause I’m hoping it’s a she. She’s about 12 weeks old almost 13! I haven’t seen her strut before and she makes like a...

Hi everyone! I have an 8 and a half week old Egyptian Fayoumi rooster and he’s been acting very lethargic lately. Just standing around, looks kind of curled up and doesn’t scratch around like everyone else. When I go to pick him up he does run away like usual but when I just leave him and watch...

Hi all, this is my very first turkey so I know nothing about her/him. She/he is 7.5 weeks old and I got her/him from the feed store. She/he is the only turkey I have, I have her/him flocked with my 40+ chickens I would love to know wether or not my turkey is a tom or a hen! Any ideas...

When will he start to show more signs of being a Roo? Like crowing or attempting to mate with my hens. I have a jersey giant boy who is the same age as my Brahma and he is already crowing and trying to hop on my girls

My Hamburg(??) is a hen for sure but I wasn’t sure if she is a Hamburg or not. I purchased her from the feed store as a Hamburg but she doesn’t look like one. She is 8.5 weeks old

Hi all! I have lots of chicks and chickens but only a couple of them that I don’t know the gender or breed. Please help :) This girl is 8.5 weeks old. I have no clue what breed she is! She was suppose to be a Silver Hamburg but she’s not white! She was white as a chick (shown below) but turned...

Also just some extra info, the brooder she is in has minimal heat offered since she is 5 weeks old and now longer needs the heat. Although there is another brooder right next to hers that has one week and two week old baby chicks so they have the heat lamp. The room is just laundry room sized so...

I decided not to separate her, I took her out and gave her some water mixed with sugar and ACV and also gave her a bit of yogurt! She seemed to love the yogurt and perked up quite a bit when I put her back. I cleaned out there brooder just to be sure that that’s not a problem and now everyone is...

Okay sounds good, maybe I will do that for her and see if she can improve. I’ve never felt a chicks crop before, is just like a grown chickens crop?

Here are some pics of her

Hi all, I have a 5 week old Golden Hamburg who started acting very lethargic since Tuesday. She eats, drinks and poops normal but there’s something off about her. She doesn’t seem to be roosting so she sleeps on the floor. She also doesn’t scratch and peck around like the others do. Tuesday was...

I keep mine under a heat lamp for about 4 weeks then take it away and they sleep inside with no heat for a week then at 5 weeks I kick them out to the coop with no heat. My nights were down in the 40s and they’re all doing fine :) there are 10 of them so I assume they huddle and keep each other...

I don’t have any advice so sorry! I’ve never experienced this myself so i don’t know what would help. Good luck! I hope she pulls through!

Also if the chicks are only a couple days old the brooder should be at least or close to 95 degrees, but if they aren’t pilling up on each other or trying to escape and get away from the heat then the temperature should be fine.
