Help Injured black Chochin

[nebulathechicken]

All my chickens were just fine and healthy, but then I noticed one of my chickens was limping! Thinking it might be bumblefoot I soaked her foot in warm epson salt water then I put honey on her foot as well. I thought she would be fine and heal well but now she can barely put her foot on the ground so I wrapped it in ocifoam to give her more soppurt! I have no clue what to do! Anything will help! I have a video of her limping that I will upload later!

Welcome to BYC!

Sorry your girl is having trouble.

Did you see any injury or swelling? How old is she? What do you feed including treats and supplement?

Yes, the video will help a lot.

I didn't notice any injury or swelling, but it's hard to tell because her feet and legs are feathered. She is probably 4 1/2 years old. We feed them purina layer feed and show feed and we give them calcium oyster shell supplements/table scraps. I'm trying to figure out how to upload the video but I'm having some trouble.

You will need to upload the video to Youtube or something similar first.
Then copy and paste a link to the video here.
Can you also to photos and upload them?

You can look for obvious injury by lifting up the feathers. As soon as you figure out the video we can get a better idea. If you see any injury while looking under the feathers, post pics.
