I agree it’s a pretty bird thoughPoorly marked Salmon Faverolle I'd say.
I used to have a little banty hen with curled feet, too. She was pretty agile and could run fairly fast. In the coop I made her a little platform roost so she could be up high and not sleep in the nesting boxes. My hen built up calluses on her feet and she didn't suffer many sores, but you should still check her for that. The only thing I occasionally had to do for her was trim her nails since she couldn't file them down herself.Yeah she is around 7 weeks old it is way to late to help her feet. I tried when she was younger but they were already grown in and I didn’t want to hurt it more or potentially break something. Chickens can thrive and live happy lives with doves toe but I sure keep an eye on her it makes her easy prey for things so she’s my little baby fs.
Will do thanks for the tipI used to have a little banty hen with curled feet, too. She was pretty agile and could run fairly fast.
