    Year old hen has open scabbed wound on hip and is limping.Help!!!

    Where are you located? I know a lady who makes it and also the gel, Ive used the gel on burns and they have vanished in days. The liquid can be taken like a drink I also use it to clean up smelly dog ears and it works wonders.
