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...
I have a Wyandotte chicken, she is 21 weeks old. I noticed that she had a limp and was holding one leg up, gradually she started having trouble with both legs and is just taking small steps, if any before she lays down. I checked for Bumblefoot, I checked her legs for any injury, I can’t see any...
For first time i’m planning to try cut bumble foot pus out. I haven't tried it yet because i wanted to know what list i need to have. Questions too.
What kind antibiotics ointment i need?
What kind /where to find pain killer for chicken? Not human painkiller.
How often i need change...
I was outside watching my girls free range when I saw one of them raise their foot and start to pull off some dirt/poop. I noticed a small dark spot on her foot and immediately thought of bumble foot. After looking at her I made sure to check the rest of my girls and found that more of them have...
I have two silkies that have these spots on the bottom of their feet. I thought maybe bumblefoot but I don’t see a “scab” and it’s not hard? They aren’t limping
We recently bought hens from someone online. After they were delivered to a friends house, I drove to pick them up (3.5 hrs)
Long story short they look to have vent gleet and 3 out of 5 have bumble foot. Do you agree? When talking to the previous owner she said they looked fine to her and would...
one of my hens had a small pimple looking bump between her toes and so i gave her an epsom salt bath, cleaned her up, separated her into a cage i used for chicks before with food, water, straw and no roost since i heard no jumping. i disinfected the wound with hydrogen peroxide after her bath...
Hello all,
We've been treating one of our hens with bumblefoot for about a week now. It looks like she has a moderate-to-bad case of it (if I'm wrong please correct me on what stage it looks to be at). So far we haven't been able to get any of the kernel out. We soak her feet in warm water high...
I've been treating my 4 y/o GLW for chronic bumblefoot. She gets it every spring, it becomes very progressed and concerning looking by summer, and then eventually, it goes away by late fall when she stops laying. She's seen a vet multiple times, but surgery doesn't work (it's stringy and...
