Pressure sores vs. Bumblefoot

KaleIAm, my vet has prescribed a treatment as well for my first case of Bumble (chicken) in 9 years. The chicken responded so quickly to the soaking, topical meds, bandaging performed twice a day. Vet is recommending the same treatment for my ducks even though he doesn't think it is bumble yet. I am totally with you on the habitat changes....I am going to soften things up this weekend and create an earthen ramp because I think they are jumping/falling off their pool ramp and causing bruising on their feet. I bought some neoprene (open toe version) booties to have as an option in my regimen as well. Not looking forward to putting those on my wiggle worms though!!
Thank you everyone for such a great discussion! I am feeling much more confident with all of these options!
