    Bumblefoot

    Hello BYC community!! I’m struggling with my chickens. We have 28 chickens and 3 ducks. We clean the coop regularly, have soft bedding, railings for them to get up and down from the roosts and even cleaned out rocks/sticks/debris from the yard. Our birds get bumblefoot roughly every 3 or 4...

    Bumblefoot

    I'm treating a hen for bumblefoot. A kernel was removed last night from the bottom of her foot (pic below). She still has this swelling on top of her foot today. It is a little warm. Does this normally resolve, or will I need to lance the top of her foot as well?

    Bumblefoot help!

    Poor Tippy can’t catch a break.. first a rat chewed her foot as a baby so she is missing a couple toes, and now she has a bumble on that same foot. Photo series progression of discovery, after cleaning/pus removal, and from today’s dressing check. My question is: Is this thing actually healing...

    Does this foot look normal?

    Is it possible she's just molting? She is a little on her neck.

    Quail: Broken Leg or Bumble Foot?

    Second opinion of Bumblefoot

    Aloha all, I have a year old Olive egger who has been limping around for about two weeks. Today I snagged her to take a look at her feet. I'm almost certain she has Bumblefoot, but I wanted to get confirmation before I try any at home treatment. There are no poultry vets where I live, though I...

    Bumble foot?

    Hi all. This is a lady from my very first flock. She’s 8 weeks old. They’ve been in their outdoor run/coop for a week or so. They stay in the run (w/ access to coop during the day) + get to free range when I’m home. Yesterday I let them out of the run and she was fine as far as I know. They...

    Is this bumblefoot?

    One of my chicks has bumps on their feet like it's a bit swollen. They're walking just fine and when I press on it, it doesn't seem to hurt. I've never seen anything like this and none of the other chicks have it as far as I can tell. Is it bumblefoot or something else? What's the best way to...

    Egg Yolk Peritonitis?

    I have an almost 5 year old hen with vent fleet and bumble foot. She constantly has gurgly sounds coming from her belly. I don’t think she’s laid an egg in four months or more. At night she pants (it’s like 60 degrees) and blinks super slowly (maybe she’s just tired) like she’s dying, but in the...

    Red Spot on Chicken Foot — Not limping

    Should this be a warning sign to something? I have a 4 year old Easter Egger that has these red spots on the bottom of a couple of her toes. Is this the beginning of bumblefoot or something else? Should I treat it or leave it and see if it works itself out? About 5 months ago we had to put...

    RIP: AngryGirl, light Brahma, odd behavior

    I did not place this in the emergency/injuries because it's not urgent. Noticed AngryGirl was off Saturday, but we have five or six going through a molt. Checked on her yesterday, she just seemed off. Wasn't moving much, extremely pale and her wattles/comb were nearly the color of her eyes...
