We recently bought hens from someone online. After they were delivered to a friends house, I drove to pick them up (3.5 hrs)
Long story short they look to have vent gleet and 3 out of 5 have bumble foot. Do you agree? When talking to the previous owner she said they looked fine to her and would...
one of my hens had a small pimple looking bump between her toes and so i gave her an epsom salt bath, cleaned her up, separated her into a cage i used for chicks before with food, water, straw and no roost since i heard no jumping. i disinfected the wound with hydrogen peroxide after her bath...
Hello all,
We've been treating one of our hens with bumblefoot for about a week now. 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. We soak her feet in warm water high...
I've been treating my 4 y/o GLW for chronic bumblefoot. She gets it every spring, it becomes very progressed and concerning looking by summer, and then eventually, it goes away by late fall when she stops laying. She's seen a vet multiple times, but surgery doesn't work (it's stringy and...
we have 3 runners all pretty young but all with weird wart looking bumps on both feet! All of the spots are in the same area. We are thinking bumble foot but it seems weird that they all have it in the same exact spot! They live in a large stock tank with pine shavings while their coop is...

Is this Bumble foot? There is no scab like the photos of bumble foot online- maybe it is an early case? Any advice welcomed! Thank you.
The hen is fine other than limping.
Hi there, I'm definitely needing some help from anyone and everyone right now. I'm very concerned over my 5 year old Jumbo Pekin Cracker, as she came out of the coop this morning with her 3 year old sister and has been acting very weird. She's had a little limp for a bit now but today it seems...
so about a little over two weeks ago, I noticed my rooster limping after two days of him limping on and off I decided to check his feet and his legs and didn’t notice anything. so I originally thought he may have just jumped down and landed wrong but I’ve still been noticing him limping on and...
I feel as if this roosters causing me more medical scares then anything.
See this rooster he's a big guy. I honestly couldn't tell you what type he is. But he's big maybe like 8 or 9 pounds of just bulk.
He's always limped I've noticed since keeping him out. Even as a chick he's never been...
Hi All, I have an Orpington hen who has been acting a bit off the last few days. We are unsure of her age, as we inherited her when we purchased our house. She is at least 6 years old. She has been withdrawn and not eating as she usually would. I picked her up a few weeks ago and she was her...
Warning - I've kept the thumbnails small because the wounds are quite gross.
One of our girls (2 yr old Orpington blue), had a bumble we thought we took out pretty well. But two weeks later the black plug came back larger, so we soaked for a few days and took it out again and it looked like...
Hi all please be gentle with judgement as this has been a very stressful and anxious situation. This has been going on since summer 2023 and I have been trying my absolute hardest to deal with this. My silkie rooster has had swollen feet for quite awhile now. At the time, I thought it would go...
I just wanted to share my joy in curing my hen with bumble foot using homeopathy. I wish I had thought to photo document it.
We just had our second experience with bumble foot. The first hen we had with it, sadly had to be euthanized. I was super worried when I saw it in my young layer...
I know that this will be a lot, but I really need help with this.
I have a pet broiler chicken (1 year and 10 months old) experiencing severe respiratory problems, likely due to a fungal infection, possibly candidiasis. This infection has affected multiple areas, including his comb (his comb...
Hi all one of my hens went missing for 3 months and by a miracle we found her on the side of the road this afternoon!
She is unable to walk and we are unsure if she was hit by a car or if it is an infection.
She is eating, drinking and purring. I’ve attached images below also!
I look forward...
We have a Black star hen who has started limping on her left foot. We don't know what it is but one hypothesis is that she has bumble foot.
The picture above is the problem foot. The picture below is of her right foot
Does anyone know what she could have?
I recently bought a gorgeous young celadon quail who came with what looked like a bad case of bumblefoot. I tended the wound a couple nights ago by peeling off the scab, soaking and rinsing with epsom salt water, and finishing with over-the-counter antibiotic ointment. I'm keeping her in the...
This is my first experience with Bumblefoot.. after research ( and vet thats on vaca and scheduling is weeks out) I knew I had to remove the scab and get the infection out. Foot and toes all swollen. I thought I got it but there was no big kernel like everyone said. So next day we soaked and my...
