Please help!! Chicken had string around ankle. Loose Foot???

Poor gut,

It will be fine, if it had turned black it would have lost it's foot.

My chickens find string from i do know where and get it wrapped around their feet as do my guineas. i swear i got a string fairy here cause i am really careful with these kind of things.

 

Ohhh, poor baby!!

Hope all will be well. Chickens seem to be pretty resilient..... they bounce back from the oddest happenings!!! (and I can attest to that first hand ha ha ha)

 

Time will tell. All things considered, it looks pretty good. If she is going to lose it, it will turn black and fall off... but even then it is not a death sentence... she can live with only one foot and a limp.

 

Oh gosh. I had this problem a while back with a baby chick. The string was wrapped around the ankle, just like yours. As long as it isnt turning black or anything..I'd say she'll heal fine

 

Poor thing! I would clean that real good and give it some antibiotics in it's drinking water.....I'd slather that wound with some type of antibiotic ointment too......

Good luck and let us know how she's doing!
