    Pearl Guinea keet with malformed leg/foot

    Hi, so I know this is a website about/for chickens, but I thought that similar principles applied to chicks apply when it comes to physical defects in keets. Just got 10 Pearl Guinea keets today and noticed that one of them has a messed up leg, which juts out sideways as opposed to straight up...

    did my quail hen break her foot ? How can I treat her ?

    one of my hens can't move her LEFT leg at all. From my knowledge, I don't think she broke her leg as she's in a cage? her leg doesn't have any signs of swelling or bumble-foot so I don't know what her diagnosis is. I isolated her from the flock and gave her some starter crumble and water, I...

    Inverted foot

    I have my 3 year old pekin who has a long history. Within 2 years he’s been attacked by an animal long story short he’s the strongest duck and he bounced back each time. The last time this happened was in the fall, since then he’s all healed but a month later he started limping a tiny bit. He...

    Foot Problem

    We noticed our rooster had a swollen toe and foot and started limping badly so we took him to our vet (we tried to take him to an avian vet but were told because of shelter in place orders they are only seeing emergencies and they did not classify his problem as an emergency). Our vet did an...

    Floppy Footed Franklin

    Hi all! One of our ducks has a floppy foot that is causing him to trip. It doesn't appear to be an issue with the leg, just the paddle. I don't believe it is bumble foot but I'm still new at this. We have steps in/out of the pool and he rarely uses them, preferring to topple the 8 inches over...

    Missing Toenail?

    We just got back from a week of camping (our neighbors have been taking care of the chickens), and we realized last night that our silkie, Myrtle, is missing a toenail!

    Big, swollen foot

    8 year old Black Sex Link. She’s always had gnarly feet but lately her left one is noticeably larger. She isn’t limping or acting like it hurts. I’m thinking the dark spots on the bottom are maybe bumblefoot? There’s also a bump on the side that looks like a cyst or something. Any help is...
