Well I now have three chooks with a sore lump on one foot. I thought I sorted the little banty maran but its back on her foot and I have a white leghorn & an ex batt also with a sore lump on one of thier feet. We did find a piece of sharp gravel in thier feet when we caught them and investigated, washed in surgical spirit and lots of pink salve oinment. Why is this happening; they have clean deep shavings with a powdered disinfectant in the hen house and have the run of a grass paddock where I move them around regularly.
I have thought of making some sort of disinfectant foot bath they have to walk through to get into the henhouse but what could I put in it that would not be harmful if they drank it...........................
Oh woe, just don't know what to do
