    Does Bumblefoot HAVE to be treated?

    Okay, so my Buff Orpington has had Bumblefoot for at least a couple of months now. She doesn't show any signs of limping or anything. Gets around fine.

    Buff Orpington Broken Leg

    My one-year-old buff orpington broke her leg just above the hock joint. She got it caught in some fencing in our yard (we believe). It was very sad, but we decided to try and save her versus the alternative. Both were difficult decisions if I'm being honest. Luckily we have an avian vet within...
