    Broken leg?

    I went out about an hour ago to put my chickens, duck, and geese in for the night, and noticed my Toulouse gander was only standing on one leg. The other is hanging behind him. He hops around on his good leg with the help of his wings for support. I haven't seen him move the bad leg at all, but...

    Broken leg???

    Does this look broken? Or possibly like a tendon? How can I help her? Or do I not need to? She doesn’t seem hurt or in pain and perched on my finger when I hold her. I’ve never dealt with this before! Help!

    HELP my Turkey poult's leg looks broken!

    One of my 8week old Turkey poult's was fine one day and looked like this. Is this the splay leg that I hear about or is it broken? Is he salvageable? I hate to have to cull him so young. Should I splint it or tape the legs together? I don't think nutrition is the issue. They are getting a 23%...

    Stiff leg?

    Okay it seems like there is lots of leg injuries going around, but I've yet to see one like hers. It started maybe a week or two ago. Possibly from a overly excited young roo. She was kinda waddling around low to the ground like she was egg bound or waiting for a rooster. I checked her, no egg...

    Turkey fumble. Life or Death?

    Hi there. 2 days ago there was a knock on my door. It ended up being some workman tree cutters trimming the trees on the ranch where I live. They said that there was a small turkey dying out by one of their ladders. Apparently it had a broken leg and the other turkeys were pecking it to death...

    Young chicken with a broken, limp leg

    last week, my 3 month old was attacked maybe by a skunk maybe by a fellow hen since we just introduced a new one the day before. I caught a skunk and noticed the baby wasn’t coming out. I noticed her leg was broken. I attempted to splint it and wrapped it and kept her in a crate. I didn’t expect...
