In Response To: Re: BUMPS ON CYGNET (The Regal Swan)

Hi Patty.

Yes, we are aware of this case as we were contacted about the cygnet and its feet. We have seen this condition in other swans, usually in cygnets. This is usually a bacterial infection most likely caused by poor water quality. A simple antibiotic ointment can usually clear the infection. However, if it fails to heal, then a veterinarin should take a scraping to see if it is viral and may need another course of treatment. The Regal Swan
