Hello,
As of early today, I noticed that my coturnix quail Sterling started limping on his left foot. He's been keeping his right leg lifted, close to his body. It feels hot to touch and he doesn't like me touching or palpating it. My guess is that his bumblefoot has worsened, as it looks more swollen now. I've previously drain his bumblefoot on the same foot, which came to settle. What would you recommend as the best course of action? I really want to help him as best as I can, as he's such a dear and I've had him for a long time. It saddens me to see him struggling to move around to eat or drink. :'( Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you.
