bumble foot

I have a beautiful brahma / rhode island rooster who is about three years old. We noticed him kicking his right leg out behind him a lot. Almost like he was being irritated by something. I had recently moved him into a new run while I added new hens so I thought maybe he was just being sassy...

previous post on this chicken for context: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/advice-on-residual-bumble-foot-problems.1486032/ So since this post i’ve been doing epsom salt soaks and applying prid. Today I pulled out the plug. I’m a little frustrated because the vet said the...

One hen and one roo had bumble foot on both feet. We started with surgery on one foot each. The roos toe healed up completely and the hen's foot was looking really good so we decided to do their other feet. I'm not sure whether or not the hen is healing. Her foot from before started to get a...

My rooster had bumblefoot on two toes. We did one surgery and that toe completely healed so we went ahead and did the other one about a week and a half ago. We could not get his toe to stop bleeding and accidentally tied the wrap too tight. His toe looked really good when we changed the wrap the...

I noticed one of our roosters has done gnarly scabbing on the top/side of his foot directly under his spurs (which are large). It isn’t looking like bumble foot to me based on the location and just general appearance - no swelling or redness and all the other chickens seem fine. Looking for...

I have a hen who has a scab on the bottom of her foot. She is not limping. And I just finished treating two other hens for bumblefoot (which took about a month). Is it possible for them to just have a scab and it not be bumblefoot?

So I need some advice. I picked up 4 hens yesterday evening and when out feeding them this morning I noticed one of the girls had a swollen foot. I pick her up to have a closer look and was horrified to find big black scab on her foot as well has an embedded zip tie. Now I don’t know if the leg...

17 week old Blue Laced Red starting to favor his right foot. We’ve checked for bumble foot but not seeing anything. This started 2 days ago. He’s still very active and eating. Could it be a sprain? Can bumblefoot take a while to appear?

Sorry in advance for the long post. So i’ve had one of my hens being treated for bumble foot, she had her 3rd appointment yesterday. They’ve been putting her in pressure relieving bandages (the pool noodle ones), and did laxer therapy. Unfortunately we caught it pretty late when it was already...

Hello, I have no vets nearby who are willing to take in chickens and my young rooster haa bumblefoot. I am wondering what the severity of his bumblefoot currently is and how best to treat it. I'm posting a picture of it so that hopefully someone can enlighten me. Thanks in advance!!

My chicken feet have been swollen for the last weeks or 2 and I don’t know what it is I’ve been soaking her in warm water and Epsom salts and that help bring down the swelling and walk a little easer I thought it was bumble foot at first but haven’t gotten worse and theres no scab I’m starting...

My chicken Minty has been limping for the past week. Today we cleaned out the little bumblefoot she had but I dont think that was the issue. She stayed out last winter and froze her toes off. They all came off nice and easy and shes been walking fine but now she's not doing well. Her back toe on...

Hey all! I'm wondering if any of you have some advice on what I can do for my rooster's foot swelling. At first I thought it was bumble, but I haven't really been able to find a "core" and it seems really swollen. I've been taking normal bumblefoot precautions and procedures, ei Epsom salt...

Last night, I went into the barn to put my chickens in their coop, and I found one of my 7mo hens acting out of the ordinary, lying there in the middle of the stall (it was a horse barn). I picked her up and thought maybe the weather got to her as she just let me hold her (something she's not...

I've read quite a few articles from pet chicken owners giving advice on how to treat bumble foot. I know it can eventually spread to the bone or the blood or something and make the chicken go lame, so it is a concern that generally can't just be ignored until it goes away. Most articles talk...

Hello! I feel absolutely terrible about how long it’s taken me to notice this, but one of my chickens has very bad swelling on one of her feet. However I do not see any scab that might indicate bumblefoot, only a small indentation in one area- does anyone have any ideas of what it might be ? She...

Hi there! We have a 11-12 month old Olive Egger (Fern) who began losing feathers around her neck and head a few weeks ago and then her comb and face began looking dry and a bit crusty. The skin on the base of her neck where feathers are growing back looks yellowed, but this might be normal. It's...

Hello all, could use some help treating my duckie. Noticed that she was limping a few days ago and her left foot was swollen. Both feet had scabs on the underside so I started Epsom salt soaks with iodine, cleaning with vetricyn, and wrapping it up with ichtammol thinking she had bumble foot...

Hi, two out of my 3 chickens seem to have bumble foot. It dosen't seem to effect them at all. I'm wondering if there's any other way to cure it than scraping the scab off. I know you can soak their feet in ebson salts, but is this affective if the scab's black? I can take pictures if needed...

Hey guys, I think my duck has bumble foot and I don't know how to fix it... HELP! (Sorry about the had quality picture and her dirty foot...)
