Thanks for the responses. One of my duck groups said the photos look more like bad callouses rather than bumblefoot. I think I agree since this morning the open one doesn't seem to have any sign of infection. It's definitely healthy tissue. I'm not gonna mess with the right foot. So I soaked his feet real good, applied spray and neo on a gauze pad and wrapped it up. Moved him out into the garage where the rest of the flock came to visit for a bit this morning, and now he's just chilling. I'm hoping he can go back out by early next week. Ours strictly free range, and if he can't walk or run he's literally a sitting duck out on our property for fox, coyote, bobcat, loose dogs, etc... so he's gotta be a house duck until then.
we have a duck that’s limping and discovered what looked like bumblefoot on both feet. This is our first duck flock, so first time dealing with this. Everything I’ve watched/read said peel off scab and squeeze out infection. So I soaked yesterday in Epsom off and on and treated with neosporin and that vetermycin spray. Today we soaked him an hour before attempting to remove the scab. I peeled the scab off his left foot, but what was underneath seemed like normal, healthy tissue. I squeezed and squeezed and all that came out was blood. Did I do it right? Am I supposed to cut that bloody, whitish area? He wouldn’t let us mess with the right foot but about 2 min, so all I got done on that one was a small area picked off and started leaking blood, so right now he’s in our bathtub on a towel with his feet sprayed and covered in neosporin. So does this look like I did it right, or not?
