    Injured foot from dog attack

    A dog got at my hens and while I don’t think it actually got to this one I believe she injured her leg or foot getting away. She can’t put any weight on it and is using her wing to balance and hobbles over. Vet can’t find a break. She can’t sprawl her foot, it’s scrunched up like this all the...

    Pekin duck injured leg????!!!!

    Hi all. So this pekin isn't mine, but stays in the stall with my fostered orphan goose. They've been together since my goose was still a gosling because she had a bad staff infection and had to be separated from her flock back in I believe April or the very beginning of the summer. They get...

    Hurt leg

    My chicken has an injured leg… I think it’s from a rooster. She’s not putting any weight on it, toes are curled and she just wants to lay down. Eats and drinks fine. When she does walk, her toes usually stay kinda curled and her ankle seems limp. Sometimes she lays with it out in front if her...

    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...
