Last night i noticed Jet (my quaker) had a curled foor at first i though she was acting silly but when i got back from work her foot was still curled, she cant seem to uncurl it on her own but when i touch her foot she doesnt complain, the pigmentation of he foot seems to be the same.. shes been like this for 2 days! should i consult the vet? is it maybe that it is swollen? will her foot stay like this? it breaks my heart to see her like this!  |

Is her foot tucked up into the feathers (what I mean is, maybe she's just standing on one leg as they often do)? Or can you see that it looks swollen? If in ANY doubt I'd go to the avian vet, particularly if this is worrying you. It can't hurt to check.

I agree, she needs to be seen by a vet. There could be some nerve damage there, but your vet is in the best position to know what is going on with Jet. Good luck, and do please let us know.

As Easttex says, it may be a bit of nerve damage. Let us know how you go with the vet.

Would she let you uncurl her foot? Maybe she has footsie cramps  But yeah, I would also have her see a vet. |
