It seems like it's one thing after the other here..I've just posted about my rooster healing from flystrike. But I noticed yesterday I had a hen looking slightly uncomfortable while walking. Shes not totally limping but shes walking somewhat gingerly that I just barely noticed she was having a problem. Anyways I caught her at their PM feeding time (my birds free range) and saw that she has small scabs on both of her feet. What do I do for this? Before I looked anything up I cleaned it with betadine and applied blukote last night before bed but after reading a bit i realized that wasnt the suggested treatment for bumblefoot..should I take the small scab off? I really have no space to be separating anymore birds at the moment..my shed is packed full of turkey poults, chicks and a healing rooster. Sorry for the horrible pictures. I'll get some better ones later. I attempted to take these my myself with a fighting chicken
