    Does bumblefoot cause a pause in egg laying? And some bumblefoot advice too?

    My 10 month old Buff Orpington caused me concern that she is not laying eggs, it's been 5 DAYS--yikes. I considered that she might be decreasing eggs due to the shorter days. She was not showing the signature signs of being eggbound, no funny walk, no squatting, and no decreased appetite. In...

    Is this bumblefoot?

    I have two hens that show signs on their feet that looks similar to bumble foot, however neither of them are limping or showing any discomfort from their feet.
