Your right, it is early stages, you might get away without having to cut out that dark spot. Give antibiotic, I think Tylan orally, or shot in breast. Put a drawing agent Like, Ichtamal on it. Gauze pad, then wrap foot in, vet wrap...its sold in most farm stores. It comes in rolls about 3 inches wide, stretches and sticks to itself so you don't need to use tape. Keep him isolated on a softer flooring. I have mine in a small coop with lots of shavings. If after a couple of days they don't go down, you will probably have to go diggin in it. They usually open up fairly easily, that one that is in the last photo, Then there might be pus like gunk inside you need to squeeze out & possible pull out a "plug like" thing, that is the root. Hopefully, you catch it early and don't have to operate. I'm going to uncover my goose foot today & hope its better. I don't want to go digging. PS if you do go digging, wear gloves, its a staff germ, you don't want to get it on you.Managed to get a hold of him, I have him in the duck house by himself so he's not struggling to keep up with the others. I need to find some sort of crate or cage or something to keep him in because that's going to be difficult to keep him in each morning. Anyway, I got a better look at his feet again after washing them off so I could tell what was dirt and what wasn't. This is what I am dealing with here...
This is his right foot, the one he's hobbling around on and favoring. Looks like it could be a very early stage of bumble foot?
This is the left foot, which to me looks like it already has a small portion of bumble foot on it:
What should I do?!?
what time is dinner?
