Rooster Limping-previous toe injury-need advice

[Dparish032]

Hi all!
Our roo (6-7 months old) has recently started limping on his left leg. About a month ago, he injured a toe. I cleaned it and wrapped it up. It seemed to heal just fine but now I’m wondering if he has an infection. I soaked him in epsom salt/warm water and cleaned the area last night. Please let me know if you think his foot looks infected. I’m wondering if maybe he injured his leg somehow and the previous toe injury has nothing to do with his limp.

Hi there, welcome to BYC!

Can you feel any heat that would indicate an infection? Does he respond as if there is pain there? It doesn't look 100% normal size, but it doesn't *look* infected to me.

Can you post a video of his limping? Sometimes using youtube or vimeo and posting the link or then uploading here.

It could be a new injury, the old one, or something worse like Marek's.

Hoping it's JUST a limp!

Thank you for responding. His left leg has heat to it, up to his knee. I will go get a video now and post soon.

Here is a short video. I have his toes wrapped in two areas, as I cleaned them and put on some antiseptic last night so I know that is adding to his limp. He is to the point where he won’t put weight on it while standing.

Here is a new video of Hei Hei today. Any help would be appreciated!
