Are Welsummers prone to bumble foot?

[outnumbered by birds]

I have a mixed flock of hen and a few roosters that I started a year and a half ago. I noticed that my Welsummer rooster and the four hens I have were continually having trouble with bumble foot while my other heritage breeds were not. Has any one else experienced this with this breed or is it just the strain I have? They all came from the same hatchery.

I've had my wellies over 3 years now and have never had bumblefoot in any of them. Bumblefoot is caused by a sliver like object that gets in the foot and gets infected. Look around your coop and run and see if you have anything that could cause an issue on their feet.
