This is something I’ve always dreaded having to deal with. Is this bumble foot? It seems as 4/6 of my ducks just got this on their feet. Is it Bumblefoot? What do I do to treat this? Please help! TYIA!!

Last night I soaked their feet in an epsom salt bath and put on a triple antibiotic ointment. This is a better picture I got last night.Clean the feet with a soapy rag then repost pictures plus pictures of the tops of the feet as well, without shadows please.
That might get you some more help.
Doesn't appear to be Bumble, it looks odd. Usually Bumble has a scab. Is it a scab? Does the animal appear to be in pain? Is the foot inflamed or puffy?View attachment 1717343

I can’t quite tell if it’s bumble foot, but if it is this should help.

Neither do I. What else is possible?I don’t think it is bumble foot. It doesn’t make sense that almost all of your ducks would get it at the same time.![]()

It doesn’t feel to be a scab, if it is it’s a bunch of tiny circular scabs. They have a harder texture. None of them seem to be in any pain and are walking just fine. I really can’t tell if they are inflamed. Some ducks have it worse than others.Doesn't appear to be Bumble, it looks odd. Usually Bumble has a scab. Is it a scab?

A few weeks ago they had a heat bulb explode in their coop. (Sometime between 4am-10am) the entire coop was cleaned immediately after I found it. It’s definitely possible they could’ve got some in their foot though we checked them all immediately and cleaned them and found nothing.
