Hi all.
This is a lady from my very first flock. She’s 8 weeks old. They’ve been in their outdoor run/coop for a week or so. They stay in the run (w/ access to coop during the day) + get to free range when I’m home.
Yesterday I let them out of the run and she was fine as far as I know. They...
Hoping for some insight from anyone with more experience. I have a 5mo old Brahma Pullet. Noticed her having trouble walking 3 days ago. She falls to one side. I’ve examined and don’t see any signs of wounds, swelling, tenderness etc. on the first day her right foot seemed limp, but she is now...
Hello-
My 14 week old hen looks in pain. She seems to be limping and I’m not sure what to do. Her tail is down too. It’s been cold here but otherwise I have no idea what could have happened. Any suggestions?
I really appreciate any help! I have a video too, not sure how to post it.
Hey, y’all.
I noticed yesterday my ~7 month old Buff goose had a slight limp. As of today, her limp is more noticeable, but she’s still getting around alright.
She has no bumblefoot, and her legs feel about the same to me. She eats as much Mazuri waterfowl feed as she’d like, though her grass...
Hi, I have a 5 month old roo starting to limp but almost as if his leg is shorter than the other. He is growing and eating and drinking all fine but I can’t understand why he is limping. I recently had a hen that started limping bad like no weight and i checked her over multiple times with no...
Hello, I noticed my duck limping yesterday which we have seen our other ducks do before and they usually come right the next day. However this duck is still limping on day two and sitting down a lot. She is a free range duck so not very friendly to just pick up. I noticed today her foot was a...
Hen is 5 months old. I noticed her limping this morning. She was fine yesterday. Still eating and active, seems normal other than the limp. Also able to “run” to keep up with the flock when free ranging. I checked for any external injuries but did not find anything — legs and feet all look...
Any idea what could be wrong with her left leg?
She has had a limp that has gotten worse over a week and keeps it close to her chest sometimes. No bumblefoot. No swelling or obvious breaks, and her leg feels normal but I noticed that the leg she’s limping on is jutted out at a weird angle. Her...
I'm sorry if this is not posted in the correct place... I haven't been on this website in a few years and things have changed. I have been rescuing neglected chickens and other birds for 10 years. Mostly chickens and parrots, but I'm not as knowledgeable regarding turkeys. Anyway, last year...
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help!
My 2yr old buff Orpington hen Pancake has developed a hobble the past few days that has progressed to her struggling to jump onto the perch at night and slowing her movements. She is extremely skittish and hard to handle so I’ve only been able to...
I have a 20 week Cayuga that has been limping for about a month now, it is definitely not bumblefoot or an infection. I've tried giving her additional niacin and aspirin to no effect, I've also attempted various means of splinting and wrapping the leg in case her ankle is injured. Those methods...
I have a hen that was nearly fully recovered from heat stroke last week who is now limping on her right foot. She’s staying in her coop and refuses to come out. It’s 99 fahrenheit today and I really don’t want her in there today…
I’ll get pictures of her foot.
Noticed my 3 month old frizzle bantam limping and holding up her leg today. She doesn’t seem to have any visible injury. She holds the leg up and hops without putting weight on it. Her toes/feet are not curled. I didn’t feel any hot spots or swollen spots. I haven’t seen the other 3 be mean to...
Hello!
I have 2 Pekin ducks, one male, one female. I keep them in my garden where they have more than enough space.
Yesterday, in the middle of the day, the male duck started limping
Today, it's gotten worse, and now he's mostly sitting down, only getting up to drink (from a tall cup I have for...
Hi, I have 8 Muscovy ducklings born on the 27th of may (14 weeks), and about 2 weeks ago one of my ducklings began to limp. We checked his foot but couldn’t find anything wrong with it and about a week ago he stopped walking apart from dragging himself into his cage or to his siblings. I have...
About 48 hours ago we noticed our buff brahma was limping. She is about 5 months old. It has been very wet this week and her feathered feed were muddy. We washed and soaked her feet, look around and didn't see anything obvious. We did notice was looked like maybe a small sliver, or a very...
We treated our rooster for mites a few months ago when we noticed he started limping. We kept an eye on him to make sure all the mites were gone. He kept taking turns on each leg, skin and comb looked healthy and he still seemed strong so we hoped he would improve. Unfortunately he didn't...
My rooster has been limping and sitting down alot without moving besides going to get up for water or food. i noticed whenever he got up he would have a hunch back and his tail very limp, legs waddling outwards. his comb has black spots and hes turning pale on the red on his face, he sprawls out...
Apologies for the duplicate thread, I've read each post that I could get my hands on on the topic and didn't necessarily felt like they matched our situation enough. I will also apologize in advance if I get terms wrong, I've pulled up a photo of chicken anatomy to try to make this as clear as...
