I have a turkey with possible bumblefoot but she does not have a black spot on the bottom of her foot that would indicate a staph infection. Its just a thick callous and it is much larger than her other foot. She acts as though it is painful and she just stands hunched over and is barely eating and drinking. I have read that turkey bumblefoot is different than chicken bumblefoot but I cannot find any info on how to treat. Can anyone help with advice on treatment please?
