    Flock with bumblefoot

    Help!! I have around 40 chickens, and the other day me and my mom discovered that around half of them have bumblefoot. Now, I’ve done my research, and I know how to go about treating them individually. But 20 or so chickens is a lot of chickens to have to treat. Has anyone else had this problem...

    Bump on duck's foot

    A couple days ago upon checking my duck's foot, I saw a very small slight bump on the underside of her toe, looking a little red. I checked again and it hasn't gone, or gotten any larger, but is still red which concerns me. I had a good feel and it doesn't feel hot, it's quite hard, feels very...

    Does my Rooster have Bumblefoot?

    Hey everyone. Long time no see. I haven't posted recently because everything about my chickens has been pretty uneventful. However, my rooster has a swollen middle toe and there's a large black spot under it. I'm hoping it's not bumblefoot because the roosts in their coop are pretty high. If so...

    bumblefoot and scaly leg mites!!!

    After some quick research I'm quite sure that one of my chickens has both bumblefoot and scaly leg mites. I've learned of treatment options, but I'm unsure of what order to treat the issues in. Her bumblefoot abscesses will likely need home surgery, so should I wait to start any oil soaking for...

    Hen with swollen toe and black scab - Bumblefoot?

    My hen has a toe that is warm to the touch and swollen, and she does not like to stand on that foot. There appears to be a black scab forming on the underside of the swollen toe adjacent to the nail. You'll see from the photos that we've struggled with scaly leg mite infections this past winter...

    Does this look like the start of bumblefoot?

    One of my little girls is limping and avoiding standing on her left foot. The bottom looks a bit swollen but no open sores or scabs. I checked all my other birds and they look fine, as does her other foot. Thoughts? What could I do at this early stage (if it is bumblefoot) or if it's something...

    Yellow Toenail with Brown Tip, Scabs underneath toe

    Hi, I was bathing one of my hens 5 days ago when I discovered her toenail was yellow, with a brown tip on the end. It is shorter than her other nails (perhaps she broke it? But there was no bleeding), and she also has scabs underneath. The scabs look like an early case of bumblefoot, and I'm...

    Hi all! I have a few silkies experiencing some foot issues- started with scaly leg mites which are being treated and are getting better… now I suspect Bumblefoot. Noticed round scabs in middle of foot pad… removed scab after soaking it. The footpad and scab are both soft. There was no puss, just...

    Chicken Attacked By Dog Strange Mushy Egg

    Hi. I am new here. Hoping to get some insight. Long story as short as I can— I’ve had chickens for a month and a half. They were given to me. All of the chickens are active, healthy, shiny feathers, eating drinking and active. They’re free range during the day and cooped at night. They’re...

    Bumblefoot and missing feathers on chest?

    I just bought 3 quail hens 2 days ago and just noticed their feet have some droppings stuck on and lumps. The white hen is also missing a patch feathers on her chest. They preen quite a lot but I haven't seen them pull any out and plus there are no feathers laying around in their cage. So maybe...

    Is this bumblefoot?

    (Don't mind the feather stuck to her foot) I noticed this small lump on my chicken's foot today. I know bumblefoot is usually on the bottom of the foot but this was between her small toe and spur. It's a bit warm to the touch as well. She is not limping or anything and doesn't appear to be in...

    Duck foot problem!

    Elvis started limping today and I noticed this. It’s basically a massive callus. I researched bumblefoot and it doesn’t appear to be that, then again I’ve never seen bumblefoot in person. Any ideas? So far I’ve soaked his feet in epsom salt and applied bag balm. I’ve including a picture of Elvis...

    Rhode island red rooster lameness

    Hi My rhode island red rooster about 5 months old has one leg lame, it is usually lying down and walks crisscrossing. Should i cull the rooster? I have tried giving multivitamins and provide calcium supplements, but no improvement. It seems to get worse as the rooster gains more weight growing up.
