Goose injury/illness

[LoveMyBirds123]

Hello!

My 2 year old Emden gander has been limping and seems off. This has been going on for a week or two. He was also experiencing diarrhea, but we have treated him with Corrid and that seems to be better. He is also on an antibiotic for what I thought was bumblefoot, but upon further inspection (he's really hard to hold still sometimes), I'm not sure it is bumble? Here are some pics of his feet. Any advice is welcomed! We are currently looking for a vet to get him into, but that's proving difficult. I also have him on b12 after his corrid treatment. Other things of note: it's has been hot the past few days (mid-80s) and he has also been panting a lot. He is eating and drinking normally.

I would start soaking the feet and legs in warm Epsom salts water in a tub or rubbermaid container daily for about 15 minutes. Then you can apply Betadine or the less expensive Equate First Aid Antiseptic povidone iodine, mixed in some sugar to make a paste. Apply a 2x2 gauze pad or Duoderm and then strips of 1 inch vet wrap or cohesive bandage. Change it daily. Here is a good thread with some posts by @coach723 on using sugardine in bumblefoot:
