Hey everyone! I'm having some trouble with my easter egger, denise. I noticed about two weeks ago that she was limping. I checked her, and the bottom of her foot was swollen, which I thought was bumble foot. But I didn't see a scab so I wrapped her foot with some padding and put her inside...

I have a 4 week old pea chick that has a knee that wants to pop inward most of the time when it walks. Took it to a vet, but no conclusion on what the issue is or what to do. If it is walking more upright, it tends to walk OK. If it is lower to the ground when walking, the knee pops inward...
