    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...

    Limping drake -- a few questions while I wait for the vet; leg heat?

    Hello everyone, Yesterday I noticed my Welsh Harlequin drake was acting a bit off -- not as active, laying down when his friends were up and about. Then I noticed he was standing on one leg, and finally I actually saw him limping. He can still walk, and is still putting weight on it, but he is...

    Limp Quail Leg! Any advice on what to do?

    I saw that one of my female quail was lying on the ground with her leg out. (It looked hurt, no blood though.) The other quails were pecking at her on the ground so I took her out ASAP and into a quarantine box with food, water, etc. I'm not sure how she hurt it. I have just taken out anything...

    Slipped tendon in 6 month old rooster

    I looked into it more and realized that most likely what my baby Easter has is a slipped tendon. I noticed a little while ago and the man that was watching him for me brushed it off saying that he was fine. I was in a rush so I didn’t look into it at all. I’m so terribly regretting that now...

    Splayed leg?

    Is this splayed leg? I just received my box of chicks in the mail this morning. All of them seem to be doing well, even this little guy, other than his leg and having trouble moving around. He’s quite lively.. the only one who has eaten food yet.
