Hi all. My 15 month old hen got bumblefoot. I took her to the vet and got the scam removed and got it all cleaned up. She is on meds and we dress and re-wrap the the wound once per day. Today is day 5 that Murphy has been in the house seperated from the rest of her flock (4 other hens 1 rooster). Today I notced Murphy seems just...depressed or something. She is just standing in one spot, occasionally walking around and finding a new place to stand. She had a normal appetite but I havent seen her eat at all today, although I've been at work most of the day. The days prior to today she was eating normally and eating treats. Today she wont touch kale, spinich, apples, blueberries....not even MEALWORMS!!! She was eating those things yesterday though. During the other days there were some moments of the day that she was slow-moving like she is now but she usually perks back up. Especially when I bring in one of the other hen's for a few hours for a little visit. But today I brought in another hen and she still hasnt perked back up. She's on med's and took them like normal today so I dont believe she's in pain. And her bumblefoot is healing very well. Any suggestions or comments about her behavior today? Please respond. Thank you!
