    Bumble foot got worse

    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...

    Vet doesnt know what’s wrong with my hen’s foot… please help me figure out!

    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...

    Helping turkey with bumble foot

    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...

    bumble foot that isn't getting better

    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...

    Bumblefoot??

    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...

    What’s wrong with their feet?

    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

    Blood Blister AND Bumblefoot

    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...

    Bumble foot in ducks or warts!

    we have 3 runners all pretty young but all with weird wart looking bumps on both feet! All of the spots are in the same area. We are thinking bumble foot but it seems weird that they all have it in the same exact spot! They live in a large stock tank with pine shavings while their coop is...

    Is this BUMBLEFOOT?

    Is this Bumble foot? There is no scab like the photos of bumble foot online- maybe it is an early case? Any advice welcomed! Thank you. The hen is fine other than limping.
