Frostbite on feet

[Chickensandhorsesforlife]

I would soak her feet and let her rest. that is the best you can do right now.

Here is one of her feet.

ouch, poor thing...
when ever my rooster has frostbite on his comb, i put petroleum jelly on it, and it heals very quickly. wish you luck, ok?

Other foot.

wow, does she have 5 toes??

Her toenails look very long, you should clip them a little to help her walk a little better. Mine all have long nails though, so you can leave them if you want, but i would clip

dont clip too far though, it will bleed

How do you catch them to apply the petroleum jelly? I think a couple of my hens have frostbite on their combs.

try slowly crouching down and offer them some treats, and slowly scoop them up in your arms. this way they wont be too stressed. glad to help

Will soaking heal the bumblefoot or how do I tackle that before it spreads?

petroleum jelly always helps

thanks, i'll give it a try.
If I just let it go without treatment will they be ok?

Pictures of the tops of her feet and legs may be helpful to see the extent of frostbite.

I am just soaking her feet as we speak and will take photos for you after. Would love your opinion.
