    We have been keeping quail for just short of a year. They live on the ground with a board to prevent rats and “easy chick” bedding. Some time ago, early July we noticed one of the smallest quail (we only have 6) had a swollen foot. By mid-July we were worried enough, because she limps a lot, to...

    Is this bumble foot extremely bad?

    We recently found a chicken with three bumps on its feet and found out it was bumble foot. We had to leave for 2 weeks and left the chicken in the care of our grandmother. When we got back the bumble foot had gotten even worse. Is there anything we can do or is it better to just put her down...

    Post surgery bumblefoot concerns

    We recently found a case of bumblefoot on one of our chickens. It was a very large scab, and we went ahead and surgically removed it. I worked with my neighbor who has experience in surgical trauma, so she was at least familiar with the idea of good tissue versus infection. Immediately after...
