Hi! My duck is acting totally fine, eating normally and not lethargic or limping. I noticed these spots on her feet. The brown spot is on one foot and looks like a scab. The other one is a red spot. Flat, not lumpy. Not sure what this is?
Thank you!

Hi! That is very interesting... in the 4th picture it is a bit swollen. It could very well be bumblefoot. It is kind of weird how its acting normal and not acting hurt. Just to be safe, soak the feet in warm water for 20 minutes massaging gently also add some Epsom salt to it! Hope this helped! Not sure if that is what it is...

There does appear to be a bit of swelling so good advice on soaking her foot in Epsom salt [warm ] water Epsom salt is also a laxative so don't let her drink the water. Keep an eye on the one with swelling you may need to do something there eventually. The other blk places maybe brusing what does she mainly walk on?
