I am about to get four new Japanese Bantams from my mother's flock (one rooster, three hens). They have crusty white "growth" on their feet. My mother says that this is mites, and has been treating it with Scalex Mite and Lice spray for birds. She says that one of her other roosters actually...
Hi,
So my chicken doesn't seem to be able to walk. She uses her wings to get from here to there. Very short distance to take the weight off her feet when flat on the ground. She uses her wings to take the weight off when sitting putting her chest on something using her elbows and her toes are...
So I recently got this exhibition polish from a friend and have noticed her feet are multiple colors instead of that kind of slate bluish grey that is normal for her breed (she is a white crested black polish). I have attached some pictures below. Is this normal or is she peeling or something...

Almost.
The actual role play thread will be opened November 1st and will be open for gaming the moment it enters existence. For now, however, you will have to wait with festering impatience. Mwahaha.
"So, Fanci? What can we actually do since we can't role play?? And is this...
Hi guys,
I got a beautiful little sebright about two weeks ago and noticed that her middle nail upturned middle nail on her left foot.
The skin on the bottom of that toe also looks to be wearing (I guess because she has no nail there to protect it).
Is this a serious issue? I’ve never seen...

I have a 2 day old chick that has something wrong with her left foot. She was being incubated under a hen (who doesn't seem to be a good mom) she was the first to hatch but was found outside of the nest in very bad condition. She is doing much better now except for her foot problem. I tried...
Is a deep layer of pine shavings on top of small landscaping stones a suitable bed for a chicken run?
Or..
Plain dirt under/over chicken wire?
Or small rocks over chicken wire?
Looking for advice for health of chicken and ease of cleaning. Thanks!
Here in Northern California we have an unfortunate grass referred to as a Foxtail Weed. I know it can be very harmful to dogs when it becomes lodged in their nose, ears or feet but can find no information about it's potential harm to chickens. Specifically silkies with their extra fluffy foot...
Here's the thing. Yesterday a duckling hatched that was having issues standing and walking. As it was completely exhausted, I kept it warm and allowed it to rest.
This morning, it's full of energy and I've seen that one of his leg is lame. His foot is curled beneath it's belly and he hardly...
Hi I'm new to these forums so I am hoping people can help. We are in the North of England in the UK and have several chickens and some geese.
The geese are Embden geese, we hatched them out this time last year and have a mix of males and females. We have 16 of them in total. One of them has...
Hello All -
I have two chickens, one a RIR one a silkie/orpington mix (I think). Both are around 3 yrs old, both have lived happy, healthy lives. Until the past couple of weeks.
The RIR sounds like she has laryngitis. She eats and drinks well, tho her poo is a bit runny. Otherwise acting...
[I've already posted about another problem one of my hens was having today and I don't want to make it seem like I don't care about my chickens here. This is my first year having chickens and I love them very much. So any sort of unknown bad thing happening to any of them really worries me...
I recently hatched a new batch (is it called a batch?) of chicks, but i realized that one of them has 2 limp feet and is walking on it’s leg joint rather than it’s feet. I noticed when i saw it was very limp and wasn’t going to eat food or drink water and looked more like it was pushing itself...
I recently incubated a bunch of new chicks, but soon realized that one of them had 2 feet that seemed completely useless! Their toes are curled in and the poor thing has been walking on the middle of their leg. I would appreciate if someone would help with this issue ASAP, I have attached a...
It’s been about a day or two and since my chick hatched and I can’t stand up so I’m a little bit worried. I have a picture of his feet in that might be why
Hi, I'm newly registered here, but my mom has been a member for a while already. So we have 7 ducks that we rescued. A month and a half ago, this duck named Sunshine wasn't feeling well, wasn't chatting like the others, was always resting, etc. We knew she had something but didn't know what. At...
