I would say all of the above, but especially the warranty! They must be very confident in their products to offer such a long warranty.

Current pics! All healed up except the last couple of scabs. No swelling and nice, pink flesh. Thank you to everyone for the advice in treating her🙌🏻

She is completely healed! She does still limp on the foot and sometimes she chooses to keep it tucked up under her, but there is nothing left open as far as the wound goes!

Here are the current pics. As you can see, she is going to loses the whole pad of her foot, but the tissue underneath has healed up nicely I think. I can’t wrap it anymore due to the pad falling off, but everything is scanned over and dried up. There is no more swelling and she is getting around...

Sorry I wasn’t able to get a pic tonight. I’m remodeling my old house and everything takes 3x longer than planned🤦🏻‍♀️

I will try to snap one tomorrow😊

She is doing great! The open wound has completely closed so I am leaving it unwrapped now. She still doesn’t grip great with it, but she accommodates well. She is completely integrated into my flock and all is well!!!

2 week update: Here are current pics of Henrietta as on about 15 mins ago. I think it looks great! No foul odor and skin all looks to be healing. I made her bleed a little bit when I took her wrap off, but I figured that is a good sign of healthy skin growth, right? Anyway, should I continue...

The smell is almost completely gone. The foot itself isn’t swollen too much anymore compared to when I first started treatment and the pad part feels like a normal chicken foot. The tissue in the actual bumblefoot area also feels like normal foot tissue. She usually keeps the foot pulled up to...

Here’s what she looks like today post soak. the last pic is where I removed the bumblefoot “seed”. Does that look like normal heathy tissue growing? It isn’t soft and doesn’t scrape off so I’m assuming it is healthy.

I plan on taking pics today but she looks much better. I was finally able to get some iodine to make some sugardine mixture and it seems like it is really doing the trick!

Just finished the routine and when I rinsed the inside of the wound with the squirt bottle, some small pieces of dead tissue washed out. Is that a good sign? I used a q-tip to clean inside of it and the q-tip was pretty clean for the most part. No pus or drainage. She is also putting some weight...

Picture update-Day 3 *These were taking post-epsom soak which is why it looks so wet. I used a squirt bottle to really get down inside the wound. The smell is WAAAAYYYY less prominent and there was no pus or drainage that I could squeeze out. Sugar pack was reapplied and she is rewrapped.

That’s what I wondered. With the infection being so deep inside, I thought maybe that would let the infection work it’s way out. But I’m no expert:-D

Thanks for the advice! I’ll take all the advice I can get at this point. I’ve never seen a wound this bad in any of my flock! At the very least, a learning experience and, at most, a life saving one:-)
