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...
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...
Hello I am new to the community and I don’t really have any experience with ducks, I have read on some other forums about bumble foot and slipped tendons and a whole lot of other things, there is no duck vet within 30 miles of my house, any help would be much appreciated!
Hi all, I’m wanting to make some boots for my tiny pekin. She’s getting over a severe case of scaly leg & bumblefoot (I got her with these conditions last week).
I’ve found the little chicken booties online but no one in my country sells or makes them. I could buy them from overseas, but the...
My hen is almost one year old and she has a swollen lump between her toes. After researching online, I was certain she had bumble foot…so I posted to Reddit for guidance on the back yard chickens subreddit. I was told by redditors that they were unsure If this was bumble foot and to post my...
my chickens foot has been swollen for 3 months now. it was swollen on just her foot and we cut into it and meaty blood came out. there has been no scab to sign that its bumlefoot. its just a blood pus filled foot and leg. i feel like if it was bumblefoot it would have killed her by now. we...
Thank you and I appreciate all of your efforts in making this forum and helping out a duck mommy like me in knowing everything about raising ducks and keeping them happy and safe. :)
So I have domesticated ducks at home. All pekin ducks. Loves of my life.
Yesterday while I was holding (not...
I’ve got a Sussex mix called raven (the fat black one) and a isa brown mix called peanutbutter (the less fat brown one) that we hatched at home from our other choocks eggs. They are both are about 2 years old now. I noticed the bumble foot and swollen abdomen when I was treating for mites...
I need advice on my chicken with an infection in the webbing of her foot. She was successfully treated for bumblefoot a couple months ago and I noticed the webbing between the toes on that same foot was swelling up and had developed an outer scab almost a month ago. I started the bumblefoot...
Okay, so long story short this is my first ever case of bumble foot. Which shouldn't surprise me since Sapphire here seems to be my disaster baby. Everything that can go wrong, goes wrong with her. For instance, no she's not a bantam, she just came out that small.
Anyways I'm 99.99% certain...
Hello, I noticed my duck limping yesterday which we have seen our other ducks do before and they usually come right the next day. However this duck is still limping on day two and sitting down a lot. She is a free range duck so not very friendly to just pick up. I noticed today her foot was a...
Hi all! So, these past two months have been very interesting. My dad found two baby chicks..one was ill…they turned out to be roosters , I couldn’t find a home for them so I ended up taking care of them for over a month. About a week ago, I finally found a place that would take them. Part of me...
My beloved pet rooster I just found sitting down by my house sitting down in the grass.
I went to pick him up and move him to his coop.
He is now standing but is shaking from head to toe.
He has had bumble foot for about a month. I've tried treating it more than once, but it wouldn't come out...
Hi yall! I had to take my girl Nugget to the vet for a blueing comb. While there, the vet said she had bumble foot. Sure fire sign of the ‘scab’ on her foot, also, sure enough, the rest of my flock has the scabs (we are switching to sand on the flooring tomorrow). So, I followed an article I...
My hen got bumble foot a few days ago, I treated both feet, one of them is cured now, but the other one just got worse. I did everything I was told, remove the pus, salt bath, etc. That helped the other foot out, but one of the feet didn’t get better. Instead it got purple. Asked an old lady I...
I just got off the phone with the vet’s technician and I’m overwhelmed, shocked, and mentally distressed, to say the least.
On 8/23 sometimes in the early afternoon, one of my hens started limping. Next day, she did not walk at all. I read up about bumble foot, and she did have a small scab on...
Hi everyone, my turkey has bumble foot and I have done a lot of research on how to get rid of it but there's one thing I'm not sure of. All of the videos of people removing the scab and dressing the wound are done to a chicken, who is on its back. My turkey is way too big to be able to lay on...
Hi everyone! I am the owner to a beautiful 4 year old Grimaud hybrid Pekin and 6 year old Jumbo Pekin. They are usually roaming the backyard during the day, and at night they go into their coop I built for them when I first got them. I noticed these bumps on the bottom of the Grimaud's feet a...
I took my older (about 4-4.5 years) hen to the vet for bumble foot a couple months ago. She had swelling in both feet but only had a scab on one (that I removed), they did some wound debridement, dressed the foot and gave me an antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory. I gave her the medications for...
My duck has been limping over the past day or so. She’s hard to catch, but I was able to get some pictures. Our ducks are not in a fenced yard. They roam our property freely.If it’s bumble foot, can I treat it at home. I don’t know if my husband wants to spend money on a vet. We’ve had some...
