    Very Slight Limp

    While free-ranging today, I notice my big, 1.5 y/o BO, Glory, seems to be sticking close to the run areas. I then swore I saw a slight limp.

    Swollen toe on hen

    This afternoon I realized one of my hens toes was bent in a weird angle and swollen. She’s limping and laying down more often, but she’s eating normally. Does it look broken or is it just twisted? She’s about 6 years old.

It looks a bit more swollen than her left foot (see photos for both) but it doesn't look like bumblefoot...I don't think.
