I have a 1-year-old American Buff goose and noticed her limping a couple of days ago. Initially I was thinking she may have sprained it, but was able to pick her up last night and physically examine the foot: one toe is swollen and discolored--it's lighter in color, almost as if there is a lack of blood supply. I don't see any wounds or the typical signs of bumblefoot (at least what we've seen/treated with our ducks). The leg and foot don't feel hot to the touch. Any idea of what could be going on? My plan is to clean the leg and foot really well today--generally be more thorough--to ensure I didn't overlook something and go from there. I'll take new photos as well because I realize the mud/dirt on her foot isn't helping with the visual.
