Thank you for all of your input...I really do appreciate it! I'm sure his larger frame/weight is the cause of the bumblefoot...he's not light on his feet & he does have a strong "kick back" when he scratches, probably injured the skin initially from that? In the last few weeks maybe once a day...

Birdy booties? Will have to check that out!

lissalischicks, how big did your girl get? That's a good idea- think I'll do that too keeping the cushion under the pad for a while...maybe just needs time.

Thank you, Kathy. My previous post I went into their history and possible breed?? I think you may be right about him being tender on the pad. I did try metacam for a few days a while back. Vet prescribed rimadyl this time(her words were"don't sue me if this kills him" but she did find in a...

I had 4 chicks total from 2 weeks old, they came from a poultry farm at easter. A client of mine got them, couldn't keep them so I took them. Two calls I made to this farm to get an idea of their breed was they're sex linked crosses of leghorn/rhode island red & my research showed the same as...

He was 18lbs that was overweight-16 seems good

ChickNanny13- here he is in my (avatar?)photo. It's been 2 days with his cotton taped under his pad. He did take a few steps with no limp and then started to limp....so maybe this is a step in the right direction...

Azygous- you mentioned swelling on Olive's adjacent foot pad hasn't gone down...is this the same foot with the bumblefoot? My protocol was Epsom salt foot soaks, coconut oil, antibiotic ointment(when skin was opened), increased probiotics on feed & some minced garlic. I kept him on softer...

Hi, I have a 22 month old (16 lb) leghorn/rhode island red rooster who back in June had bumblefoot, took about a month or so to treat at home & it all seemed to clear up. He developed a mild limp on the same foot that would come & go after it healed & now for the past 2 months it's constant &...

Can anyone please tell me if they used this TMS for mycoplasma? Thank you

Thank you SunHwaKwon. Will try the fermented seed again, it wasn't a hit in the past. They love their home cooked items & will keep looking around for a pellet that fits the bill! I'll post if I come across any...Thanks again!

Don't mean to offend anyone by asking that replies are kept positive pertaining to my roos being Cornish x....just choosing to focus on keeping them healthy & happy, my wish to you all

Thank you, SunHwaKwon for your response. My roosters are rescued Cornish crosses(please no negative comments on their breed as they are members of our family). I go light on grains since they can have a tough time digesting them and am not finding an organic/non gmo pellet that is close to 15%...
