Early Bumblefoot?

Hi!

I have this little sebright roo, who began limping two days ago. Today he’s not putting hardly any weight on his left leg, and not moving around all that much. I thought I had ruled out bumblefoot, but it’s hard to say. Some of his pads look a little puffy / pink, and wondering if this could be the very early stages of Bumblefoot? Or any other advice as to why he may be limping. Nothing is dislocated, and his upper thigh moves around great, it seems to be his foot.

thanks in advance!

I really do not see anything wrong with feet. :) Could soak in epsom salt once per day and spray with veterycin spray if develops more swelling and redness. If develops black spot on foot pad then has bumble foot and will have to scrub with betadine then I & D to remove black spot which is hard corn and any white pus beneath till see healthy pink tissue. Repeat foot soaks in Epsom salts with triple antibiotic ointment then apply small piece of gauze over wound and vet wrap. Use gloves as bumble foot is cause by staph infection. Throw away utensils used and use new disposable container for foot soaks.

Whew! Okay. Thank you both! I didn’t think it was, but I started looking way too much into bumblefoot and got myself worried.

I have no idea what could be causing his limp, other than maybe he jumped down too hard. I’ve checked him out about 4 diff times and didn’t see any issues at all.

May have to wait and see. Hopefully will resolve on own without intervention.
 
@Abbkayx A suggestion- Keep with a single thread about his limp, you will get more attention on the situation and cause less confusion.He will be ok, gotta give it some time. Try not to worry too much.

Thanks - can I delete a thread? I’m pretty tech savvy but can’t figure it out. I get worried about my threads getting lost, and thought it might be a diff issue, I got carried away lol.
