Chicken foot issue and doesn’t seem to be Bumblefoot

[alsiebs]

Hi there, can someone give me any advice on our hen here who has an issue? It seems like on both feet one seems worse than the other, from what I can tell it’s not Bumblefoot there is no visible signs of injury or infection, or swelling, but her feet curl up a bit, and she walks on her tippy toes and can’t really walk properly.

Poor thing.

What exactly have you been feeding her?
Was she vaccinated for Marek's?

There are a few vitamin deficiencies that can affect the legs.

Vitamins are an easy first thing to try but aren't usually likely if the bird has been eating a pelleted or crumbled age appropriate feed.

It could be likely if the bird was eating a whole grain type feed and or offered daily treats.
