[HOTONE]

mone of our roosters feet are red and looking raw. When he walks it looks like he is high stepping. When she stops walking he lifts his foot up. It looks painful and ii am wondering what I can put on his feet and what is the problem. He wont stand still long enough to take a pic. Is there such thing called foot rot? Please help me...he needs his feet!!!

Without a photo or two, it'll be difficult to figure out what's going on with your roos feet. Check the bottom of the feet for a round dark in color scab. If you see one, it's bumblefoot.

I would treat him for mites. Not saying that's what it is, but it's a good place to start.
