    Bumblefoot questions-Help please

    My 2 year old Easter Egger, Petunia, has bumblefoot. Two days ago I soaked her foot in an epsom salt bath and then made an incision. I dug deep into her foot and could not find a kernel. I did find stringy bits and pus, and removed as much as I could. I sprayed Vetericyn spray into the wound...

    Is this bumblefoot?

    Okay, so long story short this is my first ever case of bumble foot. Which shouldn't surprise me since Sapphire here seems to be my disaster baby. Everything that can go wrong, goes wrong with her. For instance, no she's not a bantam, she just came out that small. Anyways I'm 99.99% certain...

    Black Scales

    My chicken, Thyme's, scales have turned very dark. It looks like there is a lot of dirt between them, but a month ago her scales were healthy. I assumed scaly leg mite, so I have been applying Vaseline and doing Epsom salt soaks. She also has bumblefoot. I took her to the vet 2.5 weeks ago to...

    Compounding meloxicam and celecoxib

    I have some hens I treated for bumblefoot and it’s obvious they’re in pain. I’m going to compound some meloxicam for them. I’m planning on following guidelines of 0.5 mg/kg once daily dosing. Is Orablend (compounding syrup) safe for chickens? Or do I need to track down propylene glycol and 1%...

It looks like she has a moderate-to-bad case of it (if I'm wrong please correct me on what stage it looks to be at). So far we haven't been able to get any of the kernel out.

    Bumblefoot galore! What went wrong?

    Hi there. I've had my flock for a few years now and bumblefoot cases have been far and few between. Today I went and checked my birds, and I probably have like 5-6 with it now!

    Bumblefoot surgery necessary?

    I’ve attached a photo of bumblefoot I discovered today. I’ve never had a chicken with bumblefoot before, so I’m uncertain how to tell if I will need to remove it with a scalpel, or if soaking and wrapping daily will allow it to heal.

    My 1 year old jumbo pekin has a black scab, possibly Bumblefoot, on the bottom of her foot and some swelling around the top/ankle. She is babying the foot immensely and prefers to sit or lay down and she is picking up the foot and tucking it under her wing. I know it’s very very sore as we have...
