Hi all,
I noticed when I was out with my feathered girls the other day that I had one girl with legs that seem pinkish-red and puffier than usual. Anyone have any idea what this might be? She seems fine other than that, eating normally, walking and moving normally. I’m attaching a couple pictures but she is skittish so they’re not the best

Have you checked her for bumble foot? That seems pretty swollen... Also, what's the temperature where you're at?
 
Its about 30 - 50 degrees depending on the day, normal winter time temperatures in the Mid-Atlantic.
 
The pink coloring can be normal in chickens with white skin. However, the feet look a bit puffy. I would rule out any bumblefoot scabs, and post more pictures of the foot pads and of the front of the legs.
