Bumble foot in a peahen

Yes it doesn't get that cold here

Where abouts are you? Has that been your low overnight?

You're right, it doesn't get that cold here but it's definitely been lower than that where I am (in the west of Ireland). It's been just above freezing a couple of nights (0 - 1C, which is about 33 F I think). Still not cold enough for frostbite by a long way, although we do have a very wet climate and the damp can make the effect of cold worse.

I am in the Midlands. Could she have badly sprained her ankle? It will get to 1 degrees Celsius, 33.8 degrees Fahrenheit

I don't see any swelling on that foot, my guess is that she may have landed wrong and hurt her leg, hopefully it will tame down and she will be fine.

I was thinking that too. I put her in a pen for now.

Can you post a picture of the topside? I'm wondering if this might be why she's limping.

 

[peafowl_Lover]

OK I will in the morning

Now I'm thinking she broke her toe?

I put her "Sweetpea" in a small run.
