Possible bumble foot

[Liaanne2425]

I have a rooster that has started limping , he seems to have a bubble with possibly yellow pus underneath, I’m thinking it’s bumble foot and want to treat it . It’s in a toe not the foot pad . I’ve heard soaking in epsom salt helps and possibly wrapping the foot . What do you guys think ? This is my first time encountering this.

Can you get a clear picture for us? It doesn't sound like typical bumblefoot.

I will try tomorrow , it seems to have the typical scab of bumble foot I tried to pull it off and open it , but it’s very tough and I didn’t want to have to cut into too deep. I soaked it in epsom salt , sprayed with vetercin spray and wrapped it , i will definitely be checking on it tomorrow and taking the bandage off

I’m so nervous bc Ik bumble foot can become very serious , I should have gotten a picture of it , it’s a dark scab with what seems to be a puss pocket behind it

Huh... It looks like some sort of blister or cyst? Bumblefoot usually has an obvious scab that you can pry out. I wouldn't cut into that personally, just soak it and maybe try a drawing salve like Prid or sugardine (sugar iodine paste).

Let us know how it progresses.
