NewChickenMum Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Hi guys. One of my chickens has developed a limp. On closer inspection she has a lump between her toes more to the top of her foot. Any thoughts or suggestions. She didn’t seem bothered when I touched it. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 That does look odd but I can’t really say how. If there’s a chance she’s got some sort of infection you should take her to a vet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beantree Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 It could be 'bumble foot', which is an infection in the pad of the foot caused by an injury from a thorn or sharp stone. Have a look at the pad to see if it has been weeping, which will appear as a dark scab. Then if it is, as Mullethunter says, it is a trip to the vet.
