    Asymptomatic Bumblefoot?

    I have a one-year old hen who has suddenly started limping. I have checked the bottom pad of her foot, and it is not red or hot. There is no scab of any sort. However, she tries to avoid putting any weight on it at all, and she seems to be in more pain as time goes on. She jerks her leg back...

    To yellow? They are still mostly dark color on them. Since her comb just got color to it, I'm assuming her feet will be the next thing to change?

    Hi all!! Can anyone help me understand why my hen sits like this? Angel is about 11 weeks old now. She's a Jersey Giant and has passed up my 3 other chickens in size that are the same age.

    I think my duck is a mutant...

    A while ago I noticed my duck seemed to have an extra toenail growing from her middle toenail. I didn't think much of it at the time. But now she seems to have grown a small toe from beneath her middle toe with a toenail (see picture). Thoughts??

    Duckling with leg/foot abnormalities

    I had an egg hatch yesterday and the little guy was a bit behind the others. His feet are balled up into "fists" and his legs are straight out behind him. He can't walk, just scoot by pushing forward with his legs. He's active and eating and drinking. Honestly, I wasn't sure he would make it...
