What to do with my chickens, frostbitten feet

[Linda the chicken]

I’m not sure what to do. I’ve tried to warm up her feet, but that won’t work. I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do her feet are frostbitten

Leave them be. What is done is done and once they die then they will fall off. Could you post images of her feet?

Welcome To BYC
Can you please post photos?

Depending on the severity of the Frostbite, your hen may lose just a few toes to a whole foot, so photos can be helpful.

This article is one of the BEST resources we have her on BYC when dealing with frostbitten feet. I recommend that you read it.
For a more detailed and long timeline with lots of photos, the original thread the article was written for is in the second link.

Her previous home did neglect her pretty bad, and I am partially sure that’s that’s part of what caused it

Oh goodness poor thing. It looks like her whole foot will fall off as it seems to be very bad frostbite. Wyorp Rock will have much more help than I can provide for this kind of injury as it seems to be severe.

Actually, that is both of her feet both of them are severely frostbitten

Looks like the one foot is in the process of dying off and auto amputating, hard to see the other one.

Again, I recommend that you read the article and threads linked below. Lots of details, information and photos that will help you through this process.
