bumblefoot?

i have two coturnix quail (hens) that are about 13 weeks old. one of them, chica, is a little smaller than the other, and so i've always kept an eye on her. her behavior is rather spastic compared to her companion, but she's been like that since they were chicks. chica has a large swell on her...

A few weeks ago, I adopted a 10 year-old cockerel who was being badly bullied in his previous flock. He arrived with issues with his feet, and although he can walk around, although rather unsteadily, he is unable to jump, perch or climb up into the hen house unaided. I thought it might be...

Hi all, I noticed a couple of days ago one of my male Aylesbury ducks had begun limping on his left foot and inspected to find what I presume is bumblefoot. Since then I’ve been soaking in Epsom salt but it seems to be rock hard and deep seated in his foot, now leaving a hole. He seems content...

Good morning! im brand spanking new to raising chickens. I have a 3 week old silkie who has a “sore” on her foot. It is not on the pad of the foot but rather on one of the toes. I first noticed it about 5 days ago. It doesn’t seem to have gotten worse but also hasn’t improved. It also doesn’t...

I recently started taking care of a flock of chickens and started getting concerned about my rooster, Arthur's feet. They are pretty red, and he tends to fly up pretty high(once flew up a tree,) and obviously bumblefoot can be caused by enduring the landing of pretty tall heights. He has a brown...

About a week ago, right after temperatures plummeted from 70 to 40 F (Halloween T-Storm), I saw my oldest Orpington's feet turn red on the sides and fleshy parts. They weren't red before. She also has a raised bump in-between two of her toes, one on each foot. The one on her left foot has had a...

I noticed about a week ago that his toes looked swollen, I finally caught him today and soaked his feet. Both toenails are gone and the ends of his toes are very fat looking. Toes are soft and warm, red patches on his toes and feet. Red line running up the outside of each leg? One toe had a...

Hi there, I have a set up with two cages one side wire one side sand inbetween a nest box with hemp shavings. The older quail we rescued andaplaced with our 4 was bleeding on the sole of her foot and has a growth, also blaavkish but doesn't look like the flat black scabs of bumblefoot I see in...

Hi chicken people! My almost 1 year old Golden Comet Debbie has some scabs on her feet, and I am wondering if they are early bumblefoot? Also would like to hear any suggestions on how to improve on my current treatment, although I am not ready to proceed to surgery yet. Symptoms She has 2...

I noticed Reese not eating, and trying to sit in a corner this morning. When I went to check her out she started limping and her left leg looked swollen. Keep in mind as a 7.5 lb CCX pullet she doesn't know she can't jump and run like her RIR and BR sisters, she's very active! Soaked feet in...
