QuestionMy rat (Rickie Boobie) I know has bubble foot. Im using blu wound-kote and have made changes in his cage to help protect his foot now and hopefully keep it from getting worse. Does this have anything to do w/ his runny nose? I've been treating his foot for 2 days and it is just now starting w/ this yellow mucus. What should I do? I need home remedies as much as possible, please.
Answer I'm afraid home remedies aren't going to cut it here. Bumblefoot can very quickly become a serious problem that requires antibiotics and constant cleaning to cure, and if he is having discharge from his nose he either has a secondary infection or a separate respiratory infection. He needs to see a vet as soon as you can for some proper care. I hope he gets better soon, good luck!
