Maggie is better, but now I have two other ducks with bumble, am I just really unlucky or is bumble common? My duck Wyatt stated limping a few days ago and its definitely bumble on one of his feet, and now Josephine started limping and BOTH her feet look horrible Here's some pictures of Josephine's feet, I'm guessing both feet have bumble? I let everyone free range a ton last week and our ground is very rocky, maybe thats why they're getting bumble?

Yep, start the soaks up... all bumble is is an infection, it can happen from thorns, splinters, cuts, splits, etc... concrete, dry hardpacked dirt, rocky ground are all rough on duck feet, so yes, it is common when they have access to those types of ground... weekly foot checks will cut down on bumble... just paint clear iodine on any splits or cuts and remove any thorns quickly will keep them from getting bad...

Wow i didn't know they could get it that easy, i just came in from checking everyones feet and only my other duck, Magnoila, has it too, two bumble spots on each foot :( Magnoila and Josephine are both pekins and they have it the worst, im guessing because they're so heavy? Ugh, this is horrible
