    Bumblefoot galore! What went wrong?

    Hi there. I've had my flock for a few years now and bumblefoot cases have been far and few between. Today I went and checked my birds, and I probably have like 5-6 with it now!

She is babying the foot immensely and prefers to sit or lay down and she is picking up the foot and tucking it under her wing. I know it’s very very sore as we have...

    Treating Bumble Foot, what else can I do?

    Hi all, I have a Rhode Island Red hen who has bumble foot. I was sick and hadn't been out to check on them for a few days. Her foot is swollen to twice the size it normally is.
