I have 18 pullets and one of them has a foot problem. She is about a 14 week old, BR. I noticed this morning that she was not walking right. I finally was able to pick her up and check out her legs and feet. One is significantly swollen and has many scales that are leaking a clear sticky pus. They are all cooped at night with roost and dirt floor. They free range during the day.
One can see that the shanks are significantly different in color as well. I think she might have Bumblefoot. I checked the links provided on the stickeys but am still unsure how to proceed. I am not wanting to spend a fortune on a vet on her as she is a layer and not so much a pet. If she can't be rehabed, I can cull her for the pot.
TIA Brian
