I have been treating my absolute favorite bird, clyde for about a week now. Earlier this winter he was limping ship he came into the garage to heal. After about a week he was completely back to normal. Now again I found him limping and brought him back in to the kennel. After a few days he just continued to get worse which had me it was bumble foot. All prepared to do surgery i realized it was not bumblefoot, into the house he came. I have done everything I can think of and have done constant research but can not find anything resembling his symptoms. Has a huge appetite, drinking well, high spirits and seems relaxed. His feet started out a grayish green, has the most god awful smell and this morning lost the outer layer of skin.
I really do not want to lose him, he is as bad as one of our dogs. I never thought you could get so attached to a rooster before him, but I genuinely love him. If his spirits weren't up like they were and he didn't have an appetite, I think I would have ended his suffering. It definitely could be gangrene, but is there any hope for him if it is? Will he be able to walk again? Could this be something else? None of my other birds have any of these symptoms.....Any advice is greatly appreciated!
