    Hen With Foot Growth (not bumble foot)

    Hey, I wanted to hop on here and see if anyone could help me figure out what is going on with my hen. She is maybe 2 years old short and stout. We recently built a new coop for our hens but they haven't been using it as they have gotten in the habit of sleeping outside. It's just gotten cold...

    Limping chicken

    Just notice one of my buff orpington hens limping. I went to go check her out and she doesn't have as much energy as normal. I also did not see any cuts or bruises on her feet or leg. What could be wrong? She seemed fine this morning. I thought chickens tried to hide theor injuries and sicknesses?

    Limping Coturnix: Backwards Nail/Claw/Toe?

    My sweet Coturnix quail is suddenly limping on one foot. I examined it and found nothing abnormal except that one of the nails on her unused foot is backwards. It’s just the claw part, not the foot. I’m not sure if it was like that before, but she’s really pitiful right now and I’m not sure how...

    What is the healthiest roost to use?

    I know many people have different opinions when it comes to roosts whether it be rounded perches or 2x4. But my question is, which roost is healthiest for the chicken to lay on. I recently saw an article that was very hard to understand because of the wording used in it that said that one or the...

    Duck leg injury - broken foot

    Hi. I have a muscovy hen that had her nest destroyed most likely by a raccoon and hurt her leg in the process. I think it is fractured just below the ankle. She will not put any weight on it. The leg below the ankle is hot and very swollen. I can feel movement of the bone in there that I do not...

    Chicken cannot walk. Puss filled foot.

    A week or so ago I noticed that one of my birds, who is about 6 to 8 weeks old was walking funny. I tried moving the tendon back with my finger but that didnt work. It appeared to be a splayed leg. I used a rubber band and put the legs closely together... I checked on it every day. No real...
