I believe her whole feet have gone necrotic. They’ll probably fall off. What exactly happened to this bird? I wouldn’t cull quite yet though.

I integrated her to the rest of my flock her hatch mate was killed from the start they just started attacking her out f no where they all got along until about a week ago she's barley eating and drinking now she can't really walk at all it looks like she is in pain. She is now peeling her feet stink really bad like rotted meat
 
Poor baby! Is it at all possible that her feet got frostbite?
 
There probably isn’t any hope for her feet. I have however seen videos of chickens without feet and they were thriving. Is she alert?
I'm just worried about her pain levels she's not really eating or dri king one of my friends told me to Epsom soak what will that do for the feet

When I stuck her outside she stayed on the snow but when I brought her in her feet looked fine I only brought her in because of her being attacked and having blood on her.
 
I don’t think it will help them much. If they’re completely necrotic she probably can’t feel much. It may help them come off easier. :confused: I just hope it won’t spread up her leg.

Also hold anything I say with an open hand, I’ve never dealt with this before.

That's where I am at now I have had raised and hatched chickens this was the first time in 4 years that I seen this
