Geesh I am so glad to not be the only one with the leg knot problem. The only difference is that I think they peck at them because they are oozing stuff, watery puss
Ummmm, I have been putting more greens in the pens and we have gone ahead and have been giving them grain seems to keep them satisfied. Power says that my birds are overcrowed but I do not think so I think they are bored (if a bird can get bored) and if I give them something else to do other than pick on each other then they are happy.
Probably does not help but....oh yeah I have been catching the birds that are the worst and washing the sores with betadyne soap and then putting neosporin on it and if I can a bandaid. Yeah I know....maybe that is a little over the top but by the time the bandaid falls off the sores are healed and not bleeding anymore then I put them back in general population, and they seem to be just fine after that.
