    Chicken hot to touch, feeling very thin, empty crop, relatively anorexic, diarrhoea, bumblefoot

    Good morning together! One of the chickens, Blueberry, a very heavy bird (Beechwood Blue), has had some trouble recently. She's always had terrible bumblefoot since she's such a heavy breed (I tried to cut it out but failed, not allowed to try again and vets here don't do it or care), and she...

    Hey folks. New to this site. I have an ongoing issues with our huge cuckoo maran rooster (Buck). He has/has bumblefoot. It started a few months ago when just just stopped walking. We brought him inside and put him in a crate by the woodstove. He hardly ate or drank. We researched what to do...

    Weird-presenting bumblefooot?

    My 8 month old Pekin hen (I think she’s actually a jumbo Pekin), has what I assume to be bumblefoot on one of her toes. We discovered it during a regular foot check, though she has not been limping, she’s eating and drinking normally, happily mating with our drake, and laying an egg a day. I’m...

    Never-ending Battle with Low-grade Bumblefoot

    My almost 2 y/o GLW is prone to annual bouts of bumblefoot, usually beginning in the winter of each year. Last winter we didn't catch it until it had severely progressed (we were new to chicken-keeping and didn't even know what bumblefoot was at the time). Luckily, a vet ended up performing...

    Do your chickens stay on the roost when cold?

    We've had a spate of cold and windy weather and I'm having quite the time of it getting some of my girls to emerge from the coop. Our coop isn't big enough to house food and water--it's mainly for sleeping and laying. And with the deep litter method I worry about spillage that may cause issues...

    Bumblefoot??

    I just rescued this duck two weeks ago and I think he might have bumblefoot but the other duck I’ve had for a year is fine. I’m not sure if it’s bumblefoot because he’s crippled and all of the bumblefoot symptoms he naturally has because he’s overweight from his last owner and he was just born...

    Foot swelling no bumblefoot scab

    We have a 4 month old Ameraucana with a swollen right foot. It’s been swollen for a month now and she has a limp. We treated it as bumblefoot with soaks and wrapping but it never changed and no scab appeared. We stopped bandaging it after 5 days because the bandage seemed to be doing more harm...

    Advice on how to give advice?

    Another concerned duck & goose mom on instagram reached out and brought to my attention someone who isn’t “from what I can see so far” exactly interested in the well-being of their duck. From what I’ve seen they’re using their duck as a prop for media attention. In one of their videos I’ve...

    Ducklings have lump on foot - bumblefoot or normal?

    My ducklings have been having some balance issues. I recently noticed some small lumps on their "heels". (both ducks are in this picture, these feet are not both the same duck) They are khaki campbell ducklings, a little over two weeks old. I noticed the bump when I first got them (the 25th)...

    Quick, this is my rooster... is bumble foot contagious? Should I isolate? I heard epsom salt and warm water then pick off the black (yuck) and wrap. Will he pick off the wrapping? What causes it?

    Is this bumblefoot?

    Hi Guys! I noticed our pet rooster has been standing on one leg and limping a little bit here and there for the past few days. I checked out his feet and noticed a scab on his toe- not where I would expect to see bumblefoot (however I have no experience with it). As a chick he had horrible...

    Mysterious Hard Lump on Joint

    I recently noticed a hard lump on the inner side of one of my 1.5 y/o RIR's ankles (around where her foot meets her leg). It does not feel warm to the touch, and is quite hard. It seems a bit pinkish, but it's hard to tell, because all of my chickens' feet get a little splotchy and pink when...

    Black growth on duck's foot?

    I just became aware that my duck has bumblefoot on his left foot that has progressed farther than I'm embarrassed to admit, but it's being treated properly (I bring it up in case it's related to my question). While making this discovery, I took a look at his right foot as well and it had a...

    Bumblefoot- Pus Spots Developing?

    Hello, one of our 1.5yo hens has developed bumblefoot, likely stemming from a foot injury. We believe we caught the infection early and for the last two and a half weeks we've been treating her by soaking her feet in warm epsom salt baths twice daily and bandaging the feet. We apply antibiotic...

    Bumblefoot Advice

    Our 9 month old Oliver Egger, Fern developed bumblefoot just over a week ago. Upon first inspection she had the telltale black spot on the pad of her foot and swelling between two of her toes.
