    Help! Quail Limping--Wart on Foot?

    Hi everyone! I'm pretty new to taking care of quail, so I'm not very familiar with what is normal. Recently, I've noticed my pet Coturnix quail has been favoring one of her feet a little more than the other--sometimes she seems to limp, other times she walks totally fine. She also seems to be...

    2 week old chick's leg is swollen and looks deformed

    I noticed one of the legs looked swollen on a chick but he isn't walking any different or acting like it's painful at all. The swelling isn't something I've seen before, but it looks like it is every joint on his right leg. Any idea what caused this and how can I help?

    Duck has weird bulb on leg

    My duck has been limping lately and I thought it would eventually go away as it has in the past. Today when she got out of the pool I noticed a bump on her upper leg where it was badly swollen. Any idea what this is or how to handle it? Thanks!

    Hi all, I've got a 6 day old coturnix chick with a hip/knee (?) that sticks up farther than it should on one side and makes him walk funny (see pictures below). He prefers to squat or run balanced on his hocks, but seems to be able to straighten the leg more when he wants to. He hatched from...
