Just curious what you ended up doing with your Tom? I have a hen that also has ongoing bumble foot. I have treated it twice with removing the bumble. I just can't get it all....so, I'm thinking it will be easier to try Pen G IM. Did it work for your Tom?
Nope...but now they are 5 months old and still no eggs...but they are getting bigger, redder combs and tiny little wattles now. So, I'm still hopeful that it will be soon.

So, I am brand new to chickens, but we finally moved out of a subdivision and have the space, so I let no moss gather. I am jumping in. I have 5 Salmon Faverolles chicks who are having their month old birthday today! I chose them because of their reputation for being docile and good, cold hardy...
