    You might trying to bet some of the highest strength Anbusol (spelling?) as it is atopical anesthetic that might make it more comfortable. It is sold at the drug store.

    Bumblefoot Dilemma

    I have 2 buff Brahmas that have bumble foot and I am treating with doxycycine from the vet. They perked up right away and the swelling is going down. It was not a bad case. I decided to check some of my other LF and found more bumble foot. None of them has exaggerated swelling but just a...

    Depending on which one you use, it should tell you on the package. They usually go by the gallon.

    Got sand? You should!

    I have tried many different beddings. There is no doubt that the sand is probably the easiest to clean. I just scoop or sift the poop out. Sometimes what I do in the cages, is mix the sand with some pelleted pine horse bedding or some shavings or now I am also trying corn cob pellets. When...

    Help! WHAT is this?? Graphic photo!

    She was in a completely enclosed (top also) pen and coop at night with 17 other chickens. She has never been a fighter with other chickens and no body else was injured. I can only think it might have started as an insect bite that got infected or whatever. I am cleaning the area twice a day...

    Help! WHAT is this?? Graphic photo!

    Thank you all for your responses. I will try to get the antibiotic and the betadine asap. I really do not know about the stitching because the tissue is very leathery and somewhat necrotic. I do not know if stitches would hold. There is only one little dot that is actually open and moist...

    Help! WHAT is this?? Graphic photo!

    My coop and pen are cleaned at least once a day and usually more. I do not leave any poop laying around because I don't like it so I highly doubt it would have come from that. It is almost as if there is a slit with a round mass in the middle of it. It could be the spider bite that was...

    Help! WHAT is this?? Graphic photo!

    I found my hen, who has been a great egglayer, sitting in the corner on the poop board. Upon examining her I found a mess of what I think was dark dried blood and the little pocket of skin at the bottom was filled with MAGGOTS! I took her inside the house and washed the area well and got all...
