    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Coach, i took the bandage off today and there's no scab left , appears all healed now, the skin is still loose there from being stretched out i think. So after looking it over i just put 1 final spray of iodine on it for no good reason,and did not re-wrap it . What do you think ? Hopefully i...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Well Coach, i've got to be honest with you,..when you said i might have to remove the black scab from the crosscut i made ,i was thinking " What the heck,doesn't this dumb@$$ know that the scab is from my cutting her foot open healing " but...today when i replaced her bandage,i squeezed the...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Since the wrapping was coming off,i resprayed iodine wound spray to clean it it first, the Sugardyne was gone as you had said,and it was dry instead of wet and moist like when i was using the triple antibiotic ointment,so the sugardyne certainly seems better,drying it out and closing up the...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Well I didn't get pictures as i forgot once i got started,but i made the Sugardyne paste you suggested, and used it today after rinsing wound with iodine spray...my concern is...after i looked at the leftovers in the tiny dish i'd mixed the sugardyne in hours later ,i discovered that it had...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Well it's been a week now since cutting the top of her foot open, i switched from peroxide to the Iodine wound spray followed up by the Wound Kote spray,followed up by packing lots of triple antibiotic ointment,and the X hole i made never closed back up,just turned black and seemed dried up,but...

    Best breed to go with Rhode Island Red Flock?

    I don't know about best,but Leghorns would would be fast and flighty enough to get away from them ,they can run circles around a Rhode Island Red if they've got enough room. Just make sure there are extra feeders and waterers the Reds cant guard all at once,and some high perches and roost they...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Thanks Coach, I appreciate that. The only Iodine i have is regular Iodine,labeled "Iodine gentle wound spray for horses and cows " i use it for goats...its a peroxide sized bottle with a spray/squirt pump on it . Not sure if that will work or not. I was hoping i could leave the wrap on for 48...

    It's like Bumblefoot ,but with no scab...what is it ?

    Thank you both. I used a sterile Xacto knife after soaking her foot in epsom salts ,and cut a large cross shape,tried to do smaller cut at first but couldnt get in there enough,so ended up being over a half inch across each cut, there was no kernel,or solidified mass ,just liquid yellow puss...
