    Weird rashy patches on my hens feet?

    Hello everyone. I noticed this morning that my hens feet were looking bright red compared to their usual pale pink/white. I thought maybe it was due to it being cold since it was 32° this morning, but I’m not sure. I’ve done a bit of research and read it could be mites or maybe due to the cold...

    Chicken feet?

    Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. I had a 4 month old chick die from the cold weather and it had been outside for 2 days. The feet are still flexible. Can I remove them and clean them/wash them up and give to dogs to chew? Or should it be tossed? Thanks so very much for any help!!

    Scabs on feet?

    Are these normal on a hens feet? She is a larger more heavy set breed. A smaller gold breed has smaller ones too. It only seems to happen to hens.

    Bumblefoot?

    Hello, I have had chickens for 7 years now and am having my first chicken foot issues. My 2yr old EE (Nugget) had what appeared to be the start of a bumble. I removed the black dot after an epsom salt bath, but then noticed that her pad on the same foot seemed hard, slightly misshapen and...

    How to Knock a Chicken's Socks Off

    I've encountered a number of people, online and IRL, who find the idea of eating chicken feet disgusting -- both on the level of squeamish emotion, because while most chicken parts cut up don't much resemble a living chicken but feet always look like FEET -- and because they believe that chicken...

    Bumblefoot - how to help easily.

    I got 6 new layers in April. I would say 3 were robust, but lots of green and vitamins and extra protein seemed to help them all. Anyways, we've had a few issues, that are sorted, mostly poopy vents and lice that came with a vengeance in the spring, first time for that beauty. But today, I...

    Treating Bumblefoot - A Simple Surgical Approach

    Our beloved Gold Laced Wyandotte hen, Goldie, was limping around the other day. My wife picked her up, and I immediately noticed Goldie's right foot was very swollen. It was a clear sign of bumblefoot. Our flock is only a bit over a year old, and we haven't ran into many health problems. We...

    HELP ME UNDERSTAND

    Hi all, I went to a local auction hosted by a poultry club today and came home with a pair of white bantam Cochins. The hen is great - super cute, healthy, etc. The rooster, I’m not sure what to think. His feet are all strange and what look like to be deformed. Please take a look at the...
