Blueberry was healthy and fine yesterday until the evening. She suddenly went under the big hutch, lay down, and would not move. Rita, her best bud was fussing over her in a concerned way so I knew something was wrong. Went to pick her up and she had a hurt foot that was oozing dark fluid. I could not see an cuts so think she must have got bitten but am not sure.
She would not walk on the hurt foot but would hop on the other leg. I cleaned it with hydrogen peroixide and put her in the brood pen to keep the others from harrassing her. Her breathing is heavy.
This morning I saw more of the fluid around her foot were she slept. She seems to be putting some pressure on the foot now; however, she through up. She is looking rough, so I am worried she was bitten by something poisoneous. What should I be treating her with if I am not sure what bit her?
