Chicken with hurt foot.

[The Breaker]

I have a rooster with a hurt foot. And its been like this for a couple of weeks and after medicating it and soaking it in Epsom's salt we dint see any improvements. It is very swelled as you will see in the pics below. We think it might be broken and that the thing in his foot could possibly be bone. But I'm not expert in this department. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Also he doesn't seem to be in much if any pain. But that much swelling is an inconvenience to him.

Any one?

I have no idea what's wrong with him, but is there any chance you can take him to the vet for an assessment? Swelling and heat would generally indicate inflammation/infection, and he may need antibiotics.

I'm hoping that by bumping this thread someone with more knowledge than me will be able to help you.

Good luck.
