She's supposed to be a leghorn, but...

Okay cool, just wanted to make sure it wasn't from when she was little and now its constricting her leg and making it all swollen.

I put the legband on her, as well as the rest of this year's babies.

 

[ackie]

is the band too tight?
but yeah definitely something going on with that leg

eta: I just realized both legs are that thick so now idk

Something is really wrong with her. Those legs are not normal.

I don't know why but it looks like the legs start to get bigger at the band. You may want to try removing it for now. Give her electrolytes and vitamins, and maybe even treat for scaly leg mites just to be sure.

Your chicken looks ill. Her face is pale and her legs are swollen.
She does look like a leghorn mix.

Her legs have been large since she was a pullet. It's not the band.

Okay thats good, I don't mean the band is the cause though I just mean maybe if she does have some other problem you may want to take them off just for good measure.

I doubt OP needs a band to identify her anyway haha

Her legs were this big before I put the band on.

Yeah I understand. Im not saying it has anything to do with the band but a lack of anything extra on her legs while treating whatever it may be helpful, or it may not. Just suggesting you do anything and everything possible (which no doubt you are). Good luck with this btw.
