What the heck is this???

Thanks. I should've mentioned that I isolated & treated her (& everyone else for that matter) with ivermectin. I noticed her withdraw somewhat awhile back but attributed it to flock adjustments after losing her sister. I later noticed that she seemed to hold her head/neck in a slightly unnatural cur...

What the heck is this???

During a spa treatment on a BLRW I discovered strange lumps on the back of a her neck. They appear blister-like so naturally I jumped to the conclusion that I'd scalded the poor beast but in retrospect I can say that the water was not hot enough to do so. They are big & kinda squishy (versus hard/fi...

UPDATED - Should a lame / injured chick be saved?

Well well well...I started noticing Cassie's improvement a few days ago but she was still hopping however, today I saw that she now puts weight on it. There is still an obvious limp but hey, it is a GREAT sign & I'll take what I can get.

A lame / injured chick be saved?

Thx all, you give hope that it could heal with time. She (it??) does not seem to be in any pain even when I touch the leg but puts zero weight on it. She holds it up close to her body & hops on the other leg. The momma hen & hatchmates are really very patient with it, protect it, run back to it to e...

UPDATED - Should a lame / injured chick be saved?

Well folks, I came home yesterday to find a 3+ week old chick with a floppy leg. It gets around well enough to stick with mom & hatchmates but I suspect it may be broken or, more likely, out of joint at the hip cause there is no visible injury or trauma. I guess I'm looking for input...any thoughts?...
