Hi All-I have an issue with 3 of my pullets on their feet. It is immediately on the ends of their toes. It is a darkened area of I guess dead skin and it looks as if the nails are gone. It seemed to appear overnight. One of them was noticeably limping and holding it's foot up. I initially thought it was bumblefoot but there is no "core" so to speak. It literally looks like something has eaten the nails away and diseased the skin. We have been wrapping their feet and putting Neosporin on them but it's not looking any better. I wanted to see if anybody had any ideas. I could just cry for these poor babies, they are so sweet and I don't know what to do for them.
