Pekin with bumble foot

Yes that is it. This infection kind of encapsulates itself so to me unless you get into the bumble and clean it out then apply the ointment it really doesn't help much. This is just what I have seen here. Maybe others have had better outcomes just treating the outside of the bumble,
 
I couldn't get very good pictures of Angelina's right foot, which is the worst foot.

After I got the pictures, she went back to playing in the water.

Okay, I will have my mom get some of the triple antibiotic ointment the next time she goes into town.
 
@DuneDucks would you know if murdochs sells boots for ducks?

Unfortunately, I don't think so. One of my drakes has a mild case of bumblefoot and I've wrapped it up a couple times. This video gives you a pretty good idea of how it should be done. That's about the extent I've done in terms of boots/wrapping so far though.


If I were going to get some duck boots, I'd probably go with Crazy K like @Miss Lydia mentioned. These bird boots are a little pricey, but they come well reviewed, and a few of the reviews explicitly mention their usefulness in treating Pekin with bumblefoot.

How has Angelina been doing otherwise? Still giving her any Complex B?

Very good video.

I've still been giving her the b complex although I haven't been very consistent with it lately.
Angel doesn't seem to have gotten very much better, so I'm thinking she might have issues with her legs that can't really be fixed with the b complex I'm hoping that's not the case and I that if I keep giving her the b complex she'll get better.
And their feed is not supplemented with anything although I'd like to start putting nutritional yeast in their feed.
 
I am going to start soaking Angelina's feet hopefully in a few days after I get some new epsom salt and other things that I will need for treating her bumble foot.
I have green goo, vet wraps, pourus tape and gauze on hand already, would I need to get anything else? Or is what I have already going to work just fine?
Heres a few pictures of Angelina from today I think she might be going through a molt right now.

Is she getting around any better? Did you get her feet cleared yet and the bumblefoot is back or you're about to start treating for the first time?

I attempted to treat her bumble foot around the time it first happened but I didn't really know how to so I only soaked it a few times and tried wrapping it but she pulled the wraps off almost as soon as they were put on.
The store was out of unscented epsom salts so my mom couldn't get a new bag of it today, when we get a new bag of epsom salt Im going to start soaking her feet as well as Ducks.
