So, I have a nearly one year old Easter Egger. Lays great, active, super friendly. She injured her leg somehow about a week after I got her. I got her in early March. I could never find any injury on the leg or foot and she gets around fine. I check all my girls over every 7-10 days or so, including feet.
Yesterday I noticed she was limping worse than usual, and sitting down a lot. I looked at her feet again and the footpad on the left foot is slightly swollen. I still can't see any scab, though, and have never seen a wound on the foot. Can bumblefoot present without a scab? If so, how would I know whether or not to do surgery on the foot and where?
