Hi,
I was just pondering on my sclay leg bantam. Is it inevitable? I'm treating her as per the very helpful advice on this forum, and that, in itself, is not a problem.
But is it OK for large-sclae professional breeders to sell me a hen like this? When I asked about her legs I was told that they were just mucky.
This breeder is only an hour away and the drive is through pleasnat countryside, but I'm put off from getting further stock from him becasue of this experience.
I did email the guy and explain how upset I was with the situation, but even though he was happy to answer all my previous enquiries, curiously enough, he has been silent on this matter.
Am I being too sensitive?
Would you sell a hen with scaly leg without mentioning it and telling the newbie how to treat it?
