Guys help me i have a chick few weeks old and her legs are red and even have swollen in 1 leg she is not even moving from her place

So I'm guessing she's been inside then, right?

The reason I ask this is because her feet look to be shiny and bubbly, similar to what frostbite looks like a day or two after it happens. But if she's been inside then that's not a possibility.

Yep she been there

Is there a way you could get her some chick grower feed? That would be a better diet for her. Some veggies are a good treat, but a protein rich, formulated chick grower would be a better food for her.

Wheat, rice, bread(small parts), and some vegetables

That is not a proper diet for a baby chick.

Yep she been there

Hmm. Do both of her feet appear to be swollen/affected, or just one? Can you feel for any broken bones or injuries? Is there any possible way for her feet and legs to get injured?

I agree that that diet is not sufficient for a growing chick, however do you guys think that would cause what is going on in the pic?


I'm sorry I'm not being much help. I'm hoping these questions may help a more experienced member diagnose and help your chick.
