My hen started walking like her hip is out of joint, but she's walking on the side of her foot, too, so I thought bumblefoot. Soaked her feet in epsom salt water for 15 minutes, then dried her off and took a look. Not any sign of anything unusual with her foot. So I moved her leg through entire range of motion, no distress for her and nothing felt out of the ordinary. But she's still walking funny. What else do I look for? Is it maybe still bumblefoot but hasn't yet developed a scab for me to see? Her entire foot looked the same, no discoloration at all, nothing even pinkish compared to the rest.
 
I'll try, we had bad storms yesterday and didn't get the chance. Will try today. My issue with doing this is that grandson is playing in the baseball tournament--I leave the house at 5 (dark) and don't get home again until 8 or later (dark), so kinda hard to do much else.
