Young hen keeps stepping on her own feet when walking...?

I really hope that Mareks is not the cause either. Tumors can be common in chickens, and Mareks is not always the cause. If something happens to her, I would check into getting a necropsy done by your state vet, and have them test for Mareks. Here is a link for contact info, and they list $30 as the cost of a necropsy (although testing could run more): http://www.freshfromflorida.com/Divisions-Offices/Animal-Industry

Thanks so much for your help! I really hope nothing happens to her, but realistically I know that she can not continue with a good quality of life if these places get any bigger than they are right now. I'll keep a close eye on my little Pip, and if anything changes, I'll post an update.

Any update on this??? I know it was a long time ago but I have a chick with the EXACT same symptoms.
