    broken leg

    My chicken has a broken leg from falling on one side. It will stick out 90 degrees from her body. I suspended her into a wired "hammock" to keep weight off of her legs, but she got out of it and somehow wriggled up into her coop. She can't stand up. She's eating and still laying but I am...

    Duck with a broken leg

    My duck broke his leg about 5 weeks ago. The break was high up in the leg near the hip so we couldn't splint it. We had his leg bound to his body for 3 weeks and the bone has callused over but he still can't use his foot. He limps on his leg but has no control over his foot and walks on it...

    2 week old chick's leg is swollen and looks deformed

    I noticed one of the legs looked swollen on a chick but he isn't walking any different or acting like it's painful at all. The swelling isn't something I've seen before, but it looks like it is every joint on his right leg. Any idea what caused this and how can I help?

    Broken leg, or dislocated?

    Not sure what happened with this little one, I moved them outside 3 days prior to noticing the injury. I have no clue what to do. The red spot is a bone, it isn't breaking the skin, but you can see it is sticking out. Thank you for any advice you may have!

    Is this chicks leg splayed, broken, or something else?

    These are my first round of chicks and I am not sure if this gals leg is splayed (so it needs to be held closer to the other leg with a rubberband, band aid, or pipe cleaner) or broken (so it needs to be splinted) or there is something else (deformity?) going on. I put a band aid on it for a few...
