    Bummblefoot?

    We discovered today she appears to have a swollen hock on her left leg, perhaps that’s the issue? Pictures attached -first picture is left hawk, second is right.

    Bummblefoot?

    Thank you for your response wyorp, please let me know what you think based on the pictures attached! The third picture in you can see the bumble on her right pad but the other foot I don’t see a bumble-there are black dots but they don’t appear to be bumbles. Thank you so much ❤️
