My ducks name is KiKi. I got Kiki 3 days ago and kiki is about 1-2 weeks old. The breed is a Pekin. The foot became limp yesterday and my duck can’t put any pressure on that foot. When my duck walks she holds the foot up and only walks on one foot. I began giving her niacin the day before this...
Okay this is pretty long and I’m not sure if anyone else has ever experienced this before so bear with me
About a week and a half ago I took my rainbow Dixie to the vet because her foot was absolutely huge. She wasn’t limping but we decided it would be best that we get it treated before it got...
Hi all,
We have a brown hybrid hen (about a year old) who's had a limp for several weeks and favours her right leg - it's been of varying severity in that time.
We checked her over for bumblefoot and couldn't see any signs, couldn't feel anything particular in her leg and a vet also couldn't...
Hello! This is my first post... and I’m a first time chicken owner. This may be long and I apologize. Please no judgements, I’m just looking to see if anyone has any advice or has been through something similar.
About 2 weeks ago, I checked on our ladies before going to bed, and noticed one of...
I bought two ducklings from tractor supply 6 months ago and they’re fully grown now. Both of them turned out to be male and i believe that one of them is a Welsh Harlequin and the other is a Khaki Campbell. I just noticed that they’ve been fighting each other and maybe trying to mate with each...
One of my babies, Mahi started limping yesterday. There’s isn’t anything on his leg, and it doesn’t look any swollen of anything. Since I saw it, I put him in his coop with lots of water. I don’t know what to do. Should I take him to the vet? Should I make a stint for his leg?
My hen, Drumstick, is normally very healthy and doesn’t often have injuries.
This morning I noticed she was limping on her right foot. I tried to figure out what was causing it, but I didn’t notice anything. I provided photos.
Edit: She had poop on her foot and I washed it off the best I could...
One of my 5 month old Bielefelder pullets started limping a couple days ago. She was eating, drinking, and getting around ok. I looked at her leg and it looked normal (no bumps, bruises, scratches, etc..) but she didn't want to bend it nor could she close her toes around my finger. Also, one toe...
We just got our little hen up and running after a nasty eye/upper respiratory infection, and now our rooster seems to have bumblefoot! The vet who took a quick look at him thought he had just pulled a muscle and needed to rest. Do the pictures look like bumblefoot to you?
His symptoms: limping...
Hi all,
About two months ago, one of my chickens started limping badly on her left foot and didn't want to move at all. There was no sign of injury or bumblefoot. I searched online for possible causes and ruled out being eggbound. I thought maybe she had a stroke based on what I read on this...
Yesterday I noticed one of my very prominent (loud and outspoken) female guineas was not very loud when she made the "Buh-crahh" call it is very much at the same hushness and hoarseness of my adult drake duck. Now today I noticed that she is limping and lays down mostly. She can scoot away...
Earlier today while I was at school my dog attacked the ducks. They are all fine and don't have any cuts or punctures of any kind but Im very worried about my Pekin Emperor. He is limping pretty badly and looks like he's having trouble moving it. I checked and it didn't look or feel like...
Hi all!
One of our ducks has a floppy foot that is causing him to trip. It doesn't appear to be an issue with the leg, just the paddle. I don't believe it is bumble foot but I'm still new at this. We have steps in/out of the pool and he rarely uses them, preferring to topple the 8 inches over...
Went out this morning to find one of our ducks limping slightly around their pen. I figured he’d probably just tripped over something (he’s done this before), but now he doesn’t want to put any weight on it and just kinda lays around on his belly.
His (left) foot doesn’t look swollen, but it...
Okay, so I have this friend who has a couple Barred Rock hens. They are about 2 years old. When they were about months old, they were attacked in a chicken coop by rats. One died. One sustained some injuries (but is fine now) but Maggie May was attacked bad. He said you could see the bone in the...
Hello,
I hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day. So I previously had a duck pass away after she had been limping/immobile for a few weeks out of the blue. I came home and she was passed away laying by the coop with the other ducks and it was really heartbreaking. Now I have another one of my...
Hello,
I have a pullet who was sick about a week ago. I treated her with corid and SafeGuard and she seemed to recover so I put her back with her flock. This morning she has a bad limp in her right leg. There is no obvious injuries - swelling, blood etc. I cant tell what part of her leg is...
Sorry about where the photos are, I can’t figure this thing out yet. Please read below, is this scaly might? Blue my Whiting True Blue about 26 weeks, starting limping today . She can get up and go if she is getting away from you, but she is otherwise staying off her feet. August has...
Hello. My dear Annie is limping and the problem seems to be her left foot/leg. I noticed her sitting a lot yesterday while the flock was free-ranging but didn’t think much of it until I saw her limping today. She rests frequently.
Both of her feet feel warm to the touch, but I compared with...
My largest Brahma hen (she just turned a year old) is limping. No sign of bumblefoot, no swelling, no wounds. She was fine when I let them out yesterday morning. I went back out to let them out in the yard and noticed her limping. She is eating and drinking fine. She “chickened” around the run...
