Tiny pink bubble on duck's toe - Bumblefoot?

[SeaSea47]

One of my Khaki Campbell girls has a tiny tiny tiny pink bubble (it's fresh-looking - no scabs - and maybe has fluid in it?) at the tip of one of her toes. It's not even as big as a sunflower seed. I almost didn't even notice it. Could this be the start of bumblefoot? It doesn't really look like it, but should I treat it like bumblefoot? I wish I had a picture, but she's rowdy today!

I will try again tomorrow. I'm also trying to nurse an injured hen back to health, so I didn't get very far with anything today! Thanks.

I think it is. Lets see others opinions. Can you get some liquid bactrim. Its really early if bumble and you can get it quick

Where would I go about getting it?

What does the bottom look like? I would treat it as if it was bumblefoot.

Try Wal-Mart pet pharmacy. I do think you need a prescription so you might try your local vet to see if they would give you one. Generic is SMP/TMZ oral suspension. Its pink. I'm not at home to look at the bottle.

As best I can tell, it’s pink too. She’s not used to being handled so this will be fun!

Yep. Even mine that are more tame are bad to treat. Wear clothes that are ok to ruin. My last duck would hold it in her mouth until I thought she swallowed then spit it at me.
