Blotchy legs

[Knighstar679]

So today I noticed that I have one chicken with these red blotches on her legs and toes. Non of my other chickens have it or anything like it. It is not warm to the touch no critters are crawling on her or anything. I am trying to figure out how to treat this, if it needs to be treated.

Any help or information would be helpful.

Red legs and feet can be from hormones. How is the chicken behaving?

Certain skin colors can have pink or red when fertile, especially white skin breeds. It is usually normal.

She is very chatty, and clucking a lot. But otherwise very normal

Thanks for the information. She is really behaving normally and exercising caution seemed wise when I wasn’t sure what was going on.
