injured

Hi all! Just woke up to find my girl looking like this! Is she missing an eye? I’m so upset I feel so awful. She’s seems fine otherwise, eating, drinking, running around. I have separated her from the others but am worried this will stress her out as she has two buddies she has a strong bond...

I came across my duck laying down, barely able to move this morning. He is unable to stand or move much and it appears that he is unable to open his bill on his own. He has been cheeping constantly. I do not see any physical injures but am new to ducks. I did check the band on his leg but it’s...

We took in this week old duckling. His foot is badly curled under. We can't get it to flatten out enough to do a boot. Any ideas how to help? He gets around good but his toes are bent and he's walking on them bent.

I have seperated my girl. Pretty sure my others started pecking or eating her vent😬 This is a pic of her about 30 mins ago, it looks like shes trying to poop. But i may be wrong Just need any advice on helping her.

Hi all. A dog came into the yard and got hold of my chicken. Please see pic. Should I try and treat it, or rather put her out of her misery? She is eating and moving about, but looking miserable.

His comb has a strange black thing on some of the tips, I’m not sure what it is. It is very cold outside, but he is a cold hardy breed, so I am not sure.

I’m not really sure what this is or how to fix it but any suggestions? It’s some hard white thing in the middle of her nostrils and has idk possibly dirt or something black in it. Is she ok?

My one and a half year old rooster has a bleeding foot, and I’m unsure about whether it’s coming from the spur or a wound on the leg itself. He lives in a spacious coop with 5 hens, and acts/looks completely normal and healthy. However, his feet do bleed pretty often (around once every 2 months...

I am in Southern California. We have an Omlet chicken chicken coop we bought a year and a half ago with an electric door. We paid $1,400 for it and we want to give it away as long as you can take our 2 chickens and give them a good home. Our daughters will be so sad about this, but we are not...

This is about my hen, whom I posted an older thread about: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/please-help-my-silkie-showgirl-she-can%E2%80%99t-walk.1606556/ Chicken that can work wings and everything else can’t walk. She tries to pull herself upward to stand, and is successful in that...

I have about a 1 year old pekin. He hasn’t had any issues until the last week when he started dragging his feet. He’s fine with walking some but will just need to sit down and rest. I occasionally will find him walking fine but it looks like he’s dragging his feet when he walks. No swelling or...

Hello there! I have this small Indian runner duck, who we call Mama duck, who is the survivor of a predator attack that took her leg. We've been helping her since she's lost her leg, and she does a pretty dang good job at getting around. Recently, however, she has seem less interested in food...

This morning I discovered my Silkie rooster limping. Yesterday they had crossed over to my neighbors land and some of my birds (which ones I'm not sure) got attacked by a goose they had. I'm not sure if my rooster was attacked buy he is limping really weirdly. Can anyone tell me what I need to...

Looks darker than the pictures I’ve seen of discharge from vent gleet. Noticed she was separated from the flock and had no energy to eat. She seemed very disoriented and had trouble standing for a moment when I put her back down. She is currently separated in a dog crate with food and water.

My Black Copper Marran has become lethargic; his comb is purple and bleeding in some areas. The temp has not gotten below 39 degrees Fahrenheit, so I am unsure if it is frostbite. It has always gone through stages where it would get a little bit of purple when he gets excited or stressed, but...

With my latest hatch: here's the details... Last chick to hatch was about 4 days behind the first, and needed help. I essentially did an egg cesarean. Now, I may have caused the problem, but was worried it wasn't going to be able to hatch on its own. Things didn't look great... it was still...

Fox attacked at about 4am. Noise woke me, I ran and scared it away. It killed one and was on the other when I saw it. I throughly she was dead at first but then she moved, so I scooped her up and brought her inside. She is mostly just lying here breathing gently. Every so often she gets up and...

Hi everyone I found one of my male quails with a broken beak. Its completely clean with no blood but its broken right back to just where the flesh starts. His new beak tip is the flesh bulb thingy (ill get pictures soon). Will the beak grow still if it was just the keratin part that has broken...

We're in the process of integrating 4, 9 week old pullets into our flock of 5, 8 month olds. After a few weeks of them getting to know each other we finally let them interact and after 5 hours of peaceful supervised time they were given some unsupervised time so we could get some chores done...

Hello! I hatched a few satin silkie eggs last week and one of them hasn't walked since. It kind of lays on its side most of the time and tries to move around a little on it's hocks. It's legs were pretty far apart so I've been treating for splayed leg but it doesn't seem to be helping. I also...
