    Bumble foot post surgery concerns

    I cured my case of bumble foot by daily antispetic wash or salt wash which is good for drying up the scab i also squeezed out the puss while the foot was soaked and treated with tea tree oil or spray and then dressed to stop any dirt geting in but I did remove the dressing during roosting time...

    Can my hen live alone

    I don't know for sure they all have such individual personalities to be honest 2 weeks is a long time for her to be by herself but if possible I would give her as much contact as I could to stop her becoming depressed just keep a close watch on her and hopefully she will be ok xx
