injured chicken foot

We have two silkie hens who are currently co-raising two chicks together (also silkies). Yesterday I heard a chick screaming and ran in to find one hen walking around with a baby stuck to her, flopping the chick around as she moved. I grabbed him, ripped him off the Mom, and raced him inside to...

One of our young chicks has hurt her leg. She can’t walk on it and still manages to eat and drink by dragging herself. We don’t have the heart to kill her. Can anything be done? Splint or any ideas. All the rest are fine and we don’t know how she injured herself. Thanks In advance. We have her...

Hello! I feel absolutely terrible about how long it’s taken me to notice this, but one of my chickens has very bad swelling on one of her feet. However I do not see any scab that might indicate bumblefoot, only a small indentation in one area- does anyone have any ideas of what it might be ? She...

Hi, I have a rooster who is about 4 to 5 months old. Ever since he was young he’s always just kind of laid around and not been super active. When he did start walking around I noticed that he would walk 1 foot on top of the other. The last month or so he’s secluded himself to hiding under bushes...

Hello all! New member here calling for advice on my poor Isa Brown, Henny Penny. She came out of the coop yesterday with no issues. She was walking just fine and running around the yard scratching for bugs. About an hr into it I noticed she was standing very still and panting. Tried to get her...

So I recently got 4 chickens from a friends mom and one of the chickens walk with a limp. It only leans on it for a short time when ever it walks. I do not know if anything has happened to it but it looked alot weaker than the other 3 when it hatched. It doesnt move around as much as the other...

Hey guys. Just needed some help with my baby chicken who has a leg problem. It’s legs are both underneath it which is good but one of its legs are bent so unnaturally. I can’t explain it. Here’s a pic:

My little rooster Beastie seems to have broken a claw. I have blue kote, but what do I do? go to the vet? It look like there is a part of the nail barley holding on and a little barely bloody finger tip.
