This is the bigger of my 2 almost year old females. I noticed it this morning when i went to see how many boy to girls i have. Which is 5M /8F but each time i picked them up i automatically looked at thee feet... Well I noticed it from the top and this is what was on the pad.. Anyone else agree its bumble foot? And has anyone ever -done it themselves-? I dont want to have to go up to kingston to see a vet! Please help!!
I had this kind of scare around septemberish when the smaller female had a lump and a limp, took her to a vet and it was a broken toe! I dont think that is the case here....

I currently have her in a tub with warm water and salt. Also going to keep her away from the others until healed. :/

This is the foot with the problem. Its on the inside toe. Its a huge lump!

From the side.

This is her other foot, I think its fine but just wanting second opinions!



And what I think im going to do is allow everyone in the pond before comming in and im doing a inspection on everyone again. Just to make sure.. She hasnt been limping or I would have noticed sooner and shes not steping on it weird or anything. Any help is appriciated!
 
Yep, I went through 3 months of treating for bumblefoot with mildred. Did the surgery twice, antibiotics, neosporin, etc etc. Potato poltice finally did the trick as there was something still in the foot that I hadn't seen already. Mildred still hates me - but here feet are fine. They get frequent inspections because the human is now bumblefoot cautious.
 
After looking at it clean. Were not sure what exactly is going on. But it looks grose. So We found a 24/7 vet thats willing to see her. I gave in once i seen a surgery on youtube of bumblefoot
