Hello, I have had chickens for 7 years now and am having my first chicken foot issues. My 2yr old EE (Nugget) had what appeared to be the start of a bumble. I removed the black dot after an epsom salt bath, but then noticed that her pad on the same foot seemed hard, slightly misshapen and...
Hello I’m a grandma of 2 little humans and 12 little hens.. I seem to have found something I’m not sure how to get help with.. anyone have any ideas I would greatly appreciate your time :)
This is happy feet.. and well .. her foot doesn’t look so happy.. any ideas?
My 4 year old brown leghorn developed bumblefoot in both her feet. I pulled the plug out of the one foot with no issues. The other foot was more swollen and the “scab” was recessed in her foot pad. I scraped it out as best as I could. Bottom of the foot cleared up very nicely but the swollen...
So I’m new to this site and I also did Bumblefoot surgery for the first time. I’m posting pics to get opinions on if it looks like I got it all out? I have her separated and her foot wrapped up that I’ll check in a few days.
Thanks for any responses!

so my hen Lucy got caught in a fence upside down by her leg for several hours(we were out of town and found her like that upon return). She was really out of it, so we but her up by herself. She had clawed her own wing, and had an indent on her leg where she was hanging from. Fast forward 2 days...
This morning, my 8 yr old hen was walking like she was drunk. Both her feet are swollen, and no black spot on pads. Tried to diagnose it from my health book, but couldn't pinpoint the problem. She takes a few steps then seems to stumble. All I observe is that her pads are swollen. Pictures...

Hi! I’m Sue and I recently got 4 chickens. They are all adults. But I need help please! One of the chickens has swollen feet. We read about bumble foot but she does not have scabs at the bottom of her feet. Nevertheless I have been soaking her feet every day and applying anitfungal medication (...
