Foot problem...abcess or cyst?

[WildWestChick]

How does the bottom of its foot look? Cause this could be a case of bumble foot

She is waddling a bit better..foot is not quite as large & feels cool to the touch! But will continue to treat for a few days till it looks normal. She is getting to the place that when she sees me coming in the pen she just hunkers down & waits for me to pick her up! Then the smaller Runner Duck will follow just quacking away the entire time. They are a hoot!!

Thank you once again for the advice!

Great news!! I love Runners they just look like so much fun.

doing a happy dance..Duck-Duck seems much better. Foot is still a bit swollen but she is up & going strong!!!
My lil Runner Duck I do believe is a Drake...trying to romance one of my geese??
Mixed up lil world they live in!!

ok..got me interested..Bumble Foot? Please educate me....there is an area on the side of the foot that looks like it was pus filled as if she got bit by something. She is much improved..but now you have captured my interest ...please teach me!

Thanks!!!

I've had ducks with lameness and swelling due to getting blackberry thorns in them. Yours looks more like injury than bumble foot but here is a link that I keep bookmarked . Hope it helps.

Thank you for the quick reply & the link.. indeed I am thinking my lil duck got herself a spider bite..they are very bad this year for some reason. She is padding about now as if nada had ever occurred...so my efforts either helped or not. Either way she is better & that was inded the goal. Have a great day!
