Hey guys,
One of my hens has red colouring on her legs.  They are a pale colour with a line of red running up the middle.  The scales dont look raised and she doesnt seem to be in any pain.
I am just wondering if this is something I should be worried about.

Sounds interesting.

A picture would be a good idea

I know but the OH is away with the camera and this particular hen will not let me near her. she runs off and then turns around and sticks her tongue out at me (at least that's how it feels) I will try get a pic up as soon as possible.

I seem to recall some of my girls also have red lines on their legs

Some of mine have a pale red "vain" running down the outer edge of their legs. I always thought it was a natural  blood vessel. Now I'm concerned that it might be something sinister.
 I'll be very interested to know what answers you get chuckmad.

My cockerel has always had red stripes up the sides of his legs. Maggie

I know cockerals can get very red legs when they are at their most fertile... never really heard about it in hens though :o/
