    Limping Rooster- Need help, photos attached

    My light Brahma roo starting limping 4-5 days ago. Treated him for scaly leg yesterday, no real improvement today. He's a big guy and still eating, drinking, crowing and watching his ladies just hopping on one leg and pawing at the air with the other. Sits from time to time because he's tired...

    Green pus blisters?

    Attacked by a cat 2 days ago. Bitten right on her hock/"knee". There is a small puncture hole and the whole area is blue and bruised. Been cleaning daily. She puts NO weight on it and uses her wing as a crutch to get around. She is confined to a small area, to limit the use of the leg, with food...

    Leg Mites

    Here is what worked for my chickens De-Solv-it. A multi-purpose cleaner sticky spot and stain remover. Natural Citrus Base. The mites get under the scales, and use skin to build caverns for themselves. If you pick up a piece that has fallen off then look under a microscope you will see the...

The joint has minimal movement and appears to be swollen, but not filled with fluid. The chick does not appear to be...

    Broken leg?

    I went out about an hour ago to put my chickens, duck, and geese in for the night, and noticed my Toulouse gander was only standing on one leg. The other is hanging behind him. He hops around on his good leg with the help of his wings for support. I haven't seen him move the bad leg at all, but...

    Hi, I'm writing here in hopes to get some help from the great people here! Starting from the beginning, this rooster had a really bad case of mites that we somehow missed for quite sometime. When we realized there was a problem, he was already limping pretty badly but was still standing up...

    Chickens Having Issues Bending Leg

    I have quite a large flock of chickens, and for a while now (~2 weeks) one of our older hens (Georgette) has been having trouble bending one of her legs, and it's causing her a lot of trouble moving. We first thought that she'd simply sprained her leg, and it should heal after a while, but...

    Injured duckling!

    One of my ducklings got his leg caught in some wire late last night/early this morning. He is drinking water but not eating. I moved him inside so the other ducks wouldn't get on his leg. He can't get up/stand up, of course. I'm not sure what I should do to help him. I'm not even sure if he will...

    My duck has been limping for a while now....

    So my female duck is about 7 months old now, and for the last 3 months she has had a massive limp. She would go back and forth to favoring both legs and we went through multiple stages of wrapping them, soaking them in Epsom, keeping her isolated, all of it except the vet. I think both her legs...
