    Stubborn, Painful Bumblefoot - No Core

    My 4 y/o GLW, Drucie, has struggled with bumblefoot on and off for most of her life. Whenever we finally get her to heal up, she always gets it back--and, notably, it always flares up during peak laying season (as if the act of laying causes system-wide inflammation). Anyway, a couple weeks...

When I first examined her foot two weeks ago I noticed that the upper joint on her middle toe was thick and the toe appeared crooked.
