Update post: while cleaning her feet today,and getting the dirt off, I noticed the old (healthily) scabs must of fallen off in the last few days, and now she has fresh healthy skin where the scabs used to be Yaaaaay! I think it’s safe to say we beat the bumblefoot! But now there’s a tiny...

Thank you for the great info! I definitely think a corn pad is a better way to go than gauze pad, it was a challenge to get the gauze pad in between his toes. In your opinion do you think I should continue to wrap his feet(if yes, for how long should I continue to wrap his feet)? Or Should I...

I’m starting to wonder if I freaked myself out unnecessarily by reading way to many bumblefoot threads…and I’ve babied this rooster to much 😅

Hi! First I want to say, the chicken in your pfp is beautiful! I’m so glad to hear the scabs look like they’re healing! This is were I’m conflicted though, because before I made this post, I literally took the whole week while his feet healed to read every thread on this website on...

@Razzlefrazzle When I wrap him in a towel, could I place him on his belly, with some mealworms in a bowl in front of him ? I feel like if he was eating a tempting treat, while I was working on his feet, it wouldn’t be such a stressful event for the both of us lol

I heard about the cord pad trick, but I did have a few questions that didn’t seem to be mentioned in the original thread, can you still add the SSD cream with corn pad on? And do you put the sticky side against the skin of foot, like you would on a human, or on the vet wrap? I have seen that...

@rosemarythyme @Razzlefrazzle I forgot to mention in my original post, he’s been drinking great (I’ve been adding rooster booster to his water because he’s on the amoxicillin) He eats like a pig, he eats flock raiser crumbles, has grit, and to take his medicine I’ve been using delectable...

That’s great to hear! I noticed that too today, I’m wondering if it because I’ve been doing daily cleaning with iodine (I know frequent use in the same spot, can cause dry skin) I’m going only do SSD cream, and stop the iodine and see if it clears up. Yes, right now he is on amoxicillin...

Nice! And I’m planning from now to do weekly foot checks if I notice his foot not going back to 100% after a few months(I know bumblefoot can take a while to fully heal), he’s going straight back to the vets

Hi everyone, I used to have an account here a while back but seemed to have lost my login information. I have a rooster who is a week into recovery from a bumblefoot scab removal on both feet, a vet performed the scab removal. Rooster was born around 2020 (two years old), breed is a polish...
