I know I wasn't tagged but I dealt with the same thing with my SA drake. I did 30 min soaks in warm epsom salt, followed by spraying with vetricyn, followed by Neosporin (w/ no pain relief added) on a gauze pad and wrapped the gauze in place overnight. Doing it during the day will be too much of them focusing on what's on the foot and they will try to pick/pull the wrapping off. At night is best since they are less active, can't see as well and should just sleep with it on.

Agreed.

I suspect it's a type of Footpad Dermatitis; not bumblefoot. Here's a link explaining the different causes, prevention and treatments:

I just had this issue and am working through it now

mine are 5 week old chicks so wrapping the tiny feet isn't really an option.

What we've done so far has not helped. Also now her knuckle is inflamed. Where to go from here?

I have some antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds from previous birds
