    Pekin feet injury HELP/insight!

    Hi everyone, Big Mama has been having issues with her feet for a little over a week now. I am between thinking it’s bumblefoot or a callous. She is also limping, only bearing weight on her left foot, which seems odd because that one looks worse. I’ve been giving Epsom salt baths to her feet...

    Chicken limping extremely bad, falling on herself and staying sitting.

    Hello! I have some 20-21 week old Rhode Island Reds. They all were walking fine until one day one of my girls started favoring one leg and limping badly. I thought maybe she stepped on something and I examined her foot and nothing seemed amiss. Fast forward a week or so and she is now falling...

    Duck Limping

    So this morning I let my flock out of the coop to free range and my Dalmatian duck, Pongo, was huddled in the corner. When I moved towards her she ran out limping. I caught her and her foot looks fine. No signs of bumble foot or any other injury. The leg is a bit swollen and compared to the...

    Cochin Rooster Limping - 2 weeks not getting better

    I have a rooster about 18 weeks old started limping. He’s just not doing any better. I don’t see signs of Bumblefoot or any wound or anything broken. He’s a Cochin, so it’s really hard to see anything. He still looks beautiful, has a healthy look and appetite for food and mating, but his leg...

    My duck Chicky is feeling really unwell, desperate for help :(

    I posted a few weeks back after Chicky started limping badly on her right leg. The vet didn't see any signs of a break and gave her pain killers, and she gradually started walking normally again and we figured that was that. I noticed yesterday that she was moving slow, hunched posture, far...

    Help! Chick with slipped tendon

    I have a chick that arrived to me through mail. The hatchery I got her from told me (based off the videos I sent them) that she has a slipped tendon. It took days for them to respond telling me this. I then had a hard time finding resources on how to fix this. By the time I found out a way to...

    3 hens and our rooster showing pale shrunken combs but acting normal-ish. Rooster has previous injuriues.

    Hello, first of all let me start out by saying I/we made a mistake by not writing this sooner and that is my fault, I acknowledge that. Our flock consists mostly of jersey giant mixes and lives in an old stable rather than a coop. We had one jg rooster from a less than savory place who liked to...

    Depressed/Injured Rooster

    I believe my rooster got hit by a car yesterday, I was inside and heard a thump and when I looked outside I saw my rooster struggling to run back to our yard. I immediately ran outside, picked him up and checked him for injuries. I did not see any blood though I could tell he was hurt because he...

    Very Slight Limp

    While free-ranging today, I notice my big, 1.5 y/o BO, Glory, seems to be sticking close to the run areas. I then swore I saw a slight limp. I watched her over the next thirty minutes--sometimes it was imperceptible, sometimes I swear I saw a bit of a limp, but I don't know if I'm going crazy...

    Hen not putting weight on legs.

    I have a 2-month-old white leghorn hen who is not putting any weight on her legs. It started about a week ago, when I noticed she was not putting weight on one leg. I brought her inside to watch her. I ruled out bumble foot since I see no evidence. My next thought was a possible injury, and I...

    Hello all, I'm wondering if anybody can help me with my plymouth rock hen who has been going downhill steadily the past month. I am fairly new to chickens. When we purchased our house a year ago it came with a flock of 9 in the backyard, and I'd always wanted chickens so that was fine. But I...
