brickie Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 I recently purchased six chickens of which I have 3 and a bit left. The bit being the latest poorly chicken we have. I am mistified. They eat and drink ok but their joints seem to swell up and therefore they are no longer able to move around. Seems a bit like arthritis, yet the birds are only three months old. Has anyone else come across this? Is there a cure or am I doomed!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 This sounds bad.Try asking advice on one of the specialist poultry forums . The one I know is http://www.practicalpoultry.co.uk I think you should go back to the person you bought them from too - he may have some other dud ones.

woolybanana (ex tag) Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Given that Deux Sevres has loads of mad cow disease that nobody will talk about, maybe they also have mad fowl disease too and wont talk about that. Does the vet have any idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
