Okay I have a question

And I do plan to answer

Today I was checking all my chicken feet,bodies,etc. I noticed all my chicken feet on the bottom in the middle was swollen And starting to get red...

They are eating and drinking what could be wrong

Is this normal or what going on

Please help I think my flock sick or something.

Cant i give them antibiotics its my whole flock.
 
its sounds like bumble foot. to get rid of it you can use some tweezers to pull off the scab and the yuck in side then rinse it repeatedly until it looks better. sophie
 
Post some pictures so we can see the bottoms/pads of their feet.

Very seldom will all of the chickens in a flock have bumble foot at the same time.

If you do decide to start pulling off scabs, please wear gloves. Bumble foot is caused by staph and contagious.
 
in case i skip a step you can look at step by step directions in the learning center Sophie
