Thanks everyone your advice is always so helpful and I'm about to go use it! Update later

Update as dismal as it may be, but I'm really wondering if I got to this to late. This all developed over a 48 hour period. (food and water was ample in that time) When I left everything was A okay, but when I returned she was in this condition. Starting to think that if the wound was exposed...

Yea i did stick my finger up there but I didn't feel anything. I only felt around in the first two inches or so, perhaps its further in?

okay so I did the cleaning, honey, and pushed it back in. no egg came out, some poo but she was pooping before I tried to push it in. it is still about half way out and now she is in a dark cage. we shall see. nickeechickee im in the same boat, I just want to at least give her a chance to live...

I will leave her there for another 24 hours although she isn't to happy about...

Hello all, long time viewer first time poster! One of my Rhode Island Reds developed bumble foot. I understand that if you observe them limping then the infection is fairly far along, but nonetheless I believe I caught it relatively early because there wasn't a hard dried out pus ball. I did...
