Hey everyone!
I'm having some trouble with my easter egger, denise. I noticed about two weeks ago that she was limping. I checked her, and the bottom of her foot was swollen, which I thought was bumble foot. But I didn't see a scab so I wrapped her foot with some padding and put her inside for a few days to rest.
Cut to a week later and I notice that the area right below her knee joint has some pretty intense swelling, as does her foot pad. The area of swelling isn't hot. She now hops around on one foot (she gets around pretty well) and is still eating and pooping, although not as much as normal.
Does anybody have an idea about what this could be?
