My SLW just had bumblefoot, and after I dug the scab out, I sprayed it with some Vetrycerin and wrapped it with the Vet Wrap. It's been three days, and it looked good enough for me to take the wrapper off, so I did and then I noticed that her toes are swollen more that the ones on her other...

Hi everyone. I noticed this morning one of our Mystic Onyx hens is limping pretty pronounced. I did not notice it yesterday and when I grabbed her to exam it didn’t appear swollen but it did seem tender when I touched it and she reacted and there was no scab like google suggests bumblefoot...
I noticed a few days ago my hen Fauna has a lump on top of her toe, but I couldn't tell what it was so I sprayed some oregano on it and waited to see if it'd shrink. I came back after the weekend and its a bit bigger now, so I did more research. I don't think its bumblefoot, I can't find a scab...
We have a hen who is just over a year old. about a month ago she started limping and his left foots middle toe(idk if that’s what they are called on ducks) is swollen. The bottom size of it you can see where it looks like she stepped on something. We figured infection. Cleaned it up sprayed with...
My hen has been having foot issues for over a month & a half. Swollen ankle area on both sides. Hurts to stand/walk. No visible bumble/opening/scab. I’ve tried Epsom soaks, aspirin, colloidal silver, essential oils, wraps, antibiotic ointment, rest, vetericyn, enrotex (broad spectrum...
My RIR had a ingrown nail that is now healed. He still limps and his foot is swollen. I don’t see anything that should be causing it. He still eats and drinks. He favors his left foot and don’t put all his weight on it. This makes it impossible to roost. Please help.
My 8 month old Pekin hen (I think she’s actually a jumbo Pekin), has what I assume to be bumblefoot on one of her toes. We discovered it during a regular foot check, though she has not been limping, she’s eating and drinking normally, happily mating with our drake, and laying an egg a day.
I’m...
Hi everyone, I have an adult pekin drake who is an indoor/outdoor pet. He is my baby boy and totally babied so I am very worried. He comes inside at night and stays in the largest rubbermaid tote I’ve ever seen since we have a problem around here with raccoons and stuff and don’t want him eaten...

Hello! I'm a new chicken owner. I currently have 16 chickens of various breeds. Yesterday I noticed my Splash Cochin Bantam 9 weeks old, (I think that is the breed I know it's a bantam) was lame and not running in the yard with the flock. I picked her up to give her a look over and found that...

Hi, so I know this is a website about/for chickens, but I thought that similar principles applied to chicks apply when it comes to physical defects in keets.
Just got 10 Pearl Guinea keets today and noticed that one of them has a messed up leg, which juts out sideways as opposed to straight up...
one of my hens can't move her LEFT leg at all. From my knowledge, I don't think she broke her leg as she's in a cage? her leg doesn't have any signs of swelling or bumble-foot so I don't know what her diagnosis is. I isolated her from the flock and gave her some starter crumble and water, I...
