New to ducks...

Is this bumblefoot? I've been Epson salt soaking and doing bag balm. I've also given her b12 supplement. Haven't wrapped yet...

Any suggestions?

She won't bare much weight through the leg. She's about 5 months old.

Noticed it 3 days ago

TIA!

It looks like bumble foot to me. Keep soaking her in Epsom salt, but don't let her drink it. I always use Neosporin with NO pain relief in it. It's really bad for them. And wrap it. Keep doing that daily until u can get the scab off. U should get a core out of it. The core will be hard and I've always read it's staph infection, so wear gloves. There is other threads on here where very experienced duckers tell u step by step what to do. Go by what they say, I'm still learning. But ur in the right place. They r awesome here and always helpful. But like I said, there r threads that tell u all about treating bumble foot.
