A few months?? About how long if you remember? That is, if I am indeed dealing with bumblefoot.

7 months. It was a bad case of it though.

Those types of problems can definitely be hard to deal with! It's always sad to lose a pet and to see others suffer! We lost our 14 year old lab and a year later our 12 year old cat, loved them both and miss them immensely along with all of the other beloved pets I've had and lost over the last 50+ years! It's never easy! I wish the best to you!

Thank you, I also remember every critter we had lost, but the 2 chickens hit a bit hard because it was unexpected. Thank you, and the same to you!

that reminds me of my hen Lydia that was taken by a fox. She was recovering from a vitamin deficiency, I was out trying to help her get better every day and it was just such a shock when the fox got her.

she was a lovely hen.

Here’s a video that I took of the chickens the other day.

They look so cute! I love how they kept looking up to check you were there still!!

the swelling went down and the scab disappeared.

buff columbian Brahma with partridge penciling. I’d like to breed some of mine to get that colour again.

Good morning evening
Sorry for all your losses...i'm close to everyone of you...it's really an hard thing to lose our pets

That would be a worthwhile goal! I saw someone in the Netherlands having jubilee pattern Brahmas, they are perhaps the most striking pattern I have seen, like a giant Mille Fleur D'uccle.
