    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...

    Found deep injury on bird

    Found this injury under one of my birds wings on both sides. It could have been there for weeks. I am assuming it’s from my giant rooster, who we are going to trim his nails today. I cleaned out the wound as best I could and put wound spray and neosporin on it. She’s eating more scrambled eggs...

    Healing bumblefoot?? Help

    My girls bumblefoot (i think?) has progressively gotten worse over the last few weeks. Trying to treat it but i see no improvement and don’t see how to heal the infection.

    Foamy eye disease

    One of my girls has foamy eye disease from over-mating and it’s quite sunken and swollen. At first I thought her eye had been pecked out and panicked, but it seems to still be there behind the swelling. She’s still eating and drinking, but her eye looks really bad. I could bring to the vet ER if...

    Possible bumblefoot

    I recently posted about a chicken that was limping . I think it’s bumblefoot or some kind of infection , it has seemed to form a scab that I took off as much as I could . I’m scared to really cut into it but it doesn’t ooze pus. It does bleed really well though . I have been doing Epsom soaks...

    Weird looking bill, unsure if it’s infection or just injury from foraging around the yard (sticks, branches, rocks)

    Hey all, my duck’s bill seems to be looking rather interesting. I looked at it up close and have wiped it with warm water and dawn to remove any debris. She has water deep enough to clean her nostrils, food and water given daily. I did remove piece of debris last night that was hard and sort of...

    Thought Hen Was Eggbound But Now She Walks Fine

    Hello, Yesterday I noticed my Orphington standing off to the side while the rest of my girls ate dinner. When I approached she was shaking pretty hard and she tried to walk away and waddled like she was egg bound. She let me pick her up pretty easy (which is not usually the case). I took her...

    Infection? Help!

    I noticed a weird scab on my Delaware pullet today. I cleaned it up as best as I could and bandaged it. Once it was cleaned up, I could see the scab was dead skin, and underneath was irritated, infected looking skin. Here’s some pics: The wound extends a bit under the skin, like a pocket. I...

    Rooster With Infected Cut On Leg

    I have a rooster who cut himself pretty good on the leg somewhere in the coop. It got infected about a week or 2 later. I noticed this, and cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide and warm soapy water the first couple days, and put some regular, safe-for-chickens antibiotic ointment on it (with a wrap...
