[justnancy]

New member and I need help with one of my banty roosters. He has swollen feet like they are retaining water. Have never seen anything like it. Rooster is 2 years old. Not lame. Any ideas of cause for puffy feet?.Nancy Where do I post ??? at?

Try searching for bumble foot. I have never had to deal with it, but I know that I have read about it here on the forum.

And Welcome to BYC from Western Washington State.

Make sure to read the stickies and offer pictures, if possible - can't say without more detail but I'd recommend looking up Bumble Foot and mites.

Chickens can get gout also.

Looks like you are pointed in the right direction, so I will just say

Welcome to BYC. I agree with pips&peeps, possible gout. Proper diet will prevent it.
