no81bob Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 My friend's hens have lost the feathers on their legs and there is a green tinge on the ankles - she's checked for mites and lice and there's no sign of them. They might have been pecking as there seems to be a wound under the skin. Does anyone have any ideas as to the possible reasons for green-ness?

Reikiranf Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Could it be something that they've been walking on? I was worried when Lulu's legs went very pink and then realised it was from the stalosan I'd put down in the run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Same here - I noticed this last week on Cissie but no sign of any pecking. It appears to have gone today. I've not used anything new and I'd thought all the girls would show similar signs.
