Can I ask....out of the 10 feet you looked at how many, when you did go into the foot, did you get the kernels out?

Ah. Maybe it was the tape:? I use vet wrap and haven't seen any redness on mine and they keep the bandages for upward of two weeks.
She said she just took Epsom salts and added water to make a paste.

I think you might have gotten more kernels if you had a biopsy punch or scalpel (x-acto knife would work too). Tweezers are great for grasping, but not for cutting tissue. Of course hindsight is always 20/20!It
It's a good question-I would say 3, maybe 4. Several of them didn't seem to have anything solid in there, even with squeezing and digging with tweezers. But again-I guess the saying goes "you don't know what you don't know." So it's certainly possible I missed something.
I put a towel on my legs and lay the chicken on her side with wings held firmly to sides. I can them flip a smaller towel over their head and then I can operate on them by myself. You need to get a scalpel. It makes it easier.
I sprayed it down with betadine solution, and then grabbed onto the scab with the tweezers, and gave a little twist. It pulled right away, with some extra stuff attached to it. There was some of that in there, so I squeezed and dug and got as much as I could out. It did leave a pretty big hole.
It has been suggested to the OP early on to get a scalpel, but per her description of her procedure on day 3, it does not appear that she is using one, only tweezers. I do think she would have better luck with a scalpel and tweezers. But I'm only a medical professional, not a vet.I don't think she meant cutting with a tweezers. That would be awful painful wouldn't it?
