Injured chick

[Kathrynbabychicks]

Hi there everyone I am new to this whole thing but I really like it so far. But I do have a question about my little chick Lemonade she is about three weeks old and was in excellent health until about three days ago. She now has one red swollen foot that she limps on. Any ideas?

Hi and welcome to BYC!
I'm sorry to hear about your chick. Can you post pics of the injured foot and tell us what you think might have happened to it?

Welcome Sorry your chick has a problem! Any injuries or wounds? Bottom of foot okay? Can you take pictures of leg and foot and post in Emergencies section?

Picture would help ... You may want to repost with picture to the "Emergencies, Injuries, Disease & Cure" forum. Is it possible it got injured? Insect bite? Check under it's foot to check for anything?
