Hello! Yesterday I noticed that one of my chickens had bumblefoot under both of her feet. She doen't limp (maybe because both of her feet was hurting) or have severe swelling, but it's a bit swollen and one of them was worse than the other. It was a brown scab that I removed two days ago after soaking her feet for a while and then I applied some antibiotic ointment and medical honey, and today I removed a lot of the yellow hard stuff. Underneath there was some white soft tissue, and I can not remove that because she starts bleeding if I mess around too much, and also it seems to be painful to her (even though I gave her meloxicam). Since I have managed to remove some of the hard yellow stuff, some of the ointment reaches her healthy tissue and I was wondering if I can just let it be for now without removing anything more? Ofcourse I will change the dressing daily and clean the wounds and apply more ointment.
I can post a picture tomorrow when I change the dressing if needed.
