Okay, the tweezers idea helped me out a bit. Tonight, I first soaked her feet in epsom salt. I decided to try the tweezers before the tricide-neo. I picked off some of the scab on the right foot and she wasn't bothered at all. I started the left foot and grabbed a good chunk with the...

Terry, Thank you for that link! I may be able to dig if I have to with tweezers. I think it was the whole cutting thing I had an issue with. I REALLY almost tossed my cookies watching that video.

Good to know. Thanks!

So it's safe to continue the tricide-neo? I was worried because it's an antibiotic, isn't it? I didn't know if that would be overdosing her.

For those with experience, I have a question (yet again). Today is day 6 of treatment with the tricide-neo. The cyst on the top of her foot looks MUCH better. It is probably 1/3rd the size it was and has turned brownish and seems to be drying up. The temperature of her feet seems normal...

1 Day into treatment, I soaked her again for 5 minutes in the tricide-neo and then rewrapped both feet. Swelling is a little down, the cyst sticks out a little less and her feet are much cooler (hard to tell if it's a normal temp yet). Both scabs just look soft, but maybe just a little less...

I think I will still soak with epsom salt in the mornings to help make sure it stays clean. I'm glad she was so good about being bandaged. Good for a newbie! I could take my time.

Good to know. I was debating if I should try to scrape the scabs off. I'll leave them alone. Thanks! Don't I treat with tricide-neo once a day for like a week though?

Here goes! I got my vetrap in today, so I can finally get started. Yay! That stuff is awesome! Here's my girl getting her foot soaked in epsom salt and warm water. After she was soaked I discovered bumblefoot on BOTH feet, thought the left foot isn't swollen on top. She just has a scab...

Thank you, Daniel. The more I'm researching the surgery, the less scared I'm becoming. I'll find out when I'm actually doing it! Haunted chicken, I had to use the code tricideshipfree in the coupon code at checkout. I think it was $22 and I had it in like 2 days. They were awesome. I...

I had noticed a tiny bug on one hen a couple days ago, so I treated everyone today with permethrin. It went amazingly smooth. I put the powder in an old cotton sock and puffed it all over, under their wings, tops and their vents really well. Dusted the roosts, etc. I will do it again in...
