My 5 month old Welsumer Roo has been standing very often on one foot. Always holds his left leg up. Is this Bumblefoot? Pics attached.
 
The foot looks fine....No bumble foot there. I have done the surgery before, and really, his foot looks good. I don't see any splinters or anything......Maybe he has sprainged it somehow. maybe you could cage him for a while so he can get some rest and stay off that leg a bit.....He may improve with time.

Looked like he might have jumped off the perch and land hard, thus injured or twisted his foot somehow. Happens to my girls once in a while when they do their "crash" landings.

Either rubber mat or deeper bedding will help aleviate the leg and foot injuries.
