We took possession of several 10 week old hens. On arrival a couple of them have frostbitten feet/toes. Will they eventually fall off or do we need to do something else. I've been told they can hop around with one effected foot. Any advice?
 
Generally frozen/frost bitten toes will turn black, dry up, and fall off. Chickens can get around quite well if part of the foot and toes remains - if the entire foot falls off, life is somewhat more difficult for them.
