Broken toenail or foreign object?

I would just give the Amoxicillin capsule orally twice a day for 7-10 days. Here is a good video on givng medications:

I couldn't find that med. I could only find tiny tablets which is fine for my bantams if ever needed and 10% powder. How are you guys able to get 250mg tablets?

Thank you

Recently it had been hard to source the amoxicillin capsules, and some use the powder in the water. Whatever you can get works. Sometimes antibiotics are not necessary with bumblefoot. Use your own judgement.

Day 1 -sneaky amoxicillin slurry soaked into bite of biscuit.

Thank you everyone who has shared info/time/help with this. Fingers crossed she's back to walking by the end of the month.

Today is the start of day 4 amoxicillin-Maybe a coincidence but I'm seeing her try the foot finally after +4 weeks of laying down and flamingo stance. So so happy for her. She's lost status in her flock, which sucks to see but better than the alternative. Still has heat and a funky knot in her foot. Stupid bumblefoot in a nailbed is not the same as stupid bumblefoot on the pad, that's for sure.

Tips for reintegration? We're probably a week or so out from being sound enough to reintegrate. She's lost status.

What do you guys think about this:
Bully 1 & 2 (lowest in pecking order) have challenged injured hen during brief encounters. She stood up to 1 but ran from 2. Since then bully 1 has ignored her but bully 2 continues to try to challenge. I've got a few flocks that she could integrate into but ideally I'd like to see her go back to her flock she was raised with.

If you have a dog cage or something to keep them together so they can see each other but not attack each other and keep her in there for about a week or two, that can help before reintegrating.
