    ~6 Month old hen having trouble standing

    About two months back, I acquired 6 chickens and 3 ducks. I originally went to purchase only 5 chickens, but after taking an interest in a chicken that seemed to be having trouble walking, the seller decided to let me throw her into the bundle too, on the logic that she might be happier with...

    8 week chick hurt foot? Limping

    My 8 week old Buff Orpington chick has been limping just today. She has been reluctant to put much weight on it, but she has still been hopping around, eating, drinking, pooping all normal. She has been active with the rest of the flock and even on the low roost. I'm not aware of any injury...

    Swollen leg

    my duck has one swollen leg. No scab on the bottom of the foot so I don’t think it’s Bumblefoot. He has black spots in his leg. Anyone have an idea?

    Chicken Limping on One Leg

    My silver Wyandotte has been limping on one leg for the passed week. She is about 2 weeks old. She can barely walk and seems to be getting worse. I am worried it could be Mareks. I have 5 other seemingly healthy chicks. Please advise.

    Bumble....toe???

    We have a year old Maran hen who started walking funny a few weeks ago (picks her left foot up in front of her really far as if she has something stuck on her foot she is trying to shake off) and we can't seem to figure out the cause. We've looked at the foot and one of the pads on her toe is...

    Young rooster who won’t put weight on left leg

    Hi, I have a rooster who is about 4 to 5 months old. Ever since he was young he’s always just kind of laid around and not been super active. When he did start walking around I noticed that he would walk 1 foot on top of the other. The last month or so he’s secluded himself to hiding under bushes...

    High stepping chicken

    My hen all of a sudden started high stepping/limping. I checked the bottom of her foot for thorns or cuts and see nothing. She will lift her foot and leg out straight and it seems like her foot isn’t very strong. What could this be? Can I give her anything, meds?
