Hi,
I have one hen that had bumblefoot, I soaked her twice and the scab peeled off but no kernel came out, is this normal or will there be a kernel? When will I know it's healed and don't have to wrap/treat anymore?
Thanks for help!!

Hi!

Sorry nobody got back to you sooner. How's she doing?

If she still has it and you've not gotten anything out, you could try putting some drawing salve on there to pull it out. There should have been at least a small amount of infection that you saw come out, if not, a kernel. PRID is one drawing salve I know of.

I'd soak the foot/feet in warm Epsom salt water, dry, then apply that and bandage it up. Twice a day would be best if you can.

Hi, she seems good very normal. Since post I have soaked and wrapped with vetericyn. Nothing comes out. I should probably go back to the salve and soaking . Here is pic of last time I took off bandage

That looks swollen. When you say you'll go back to the salve, is it a drawing salve like PRID?
