Suggest doing one right after the other. Two hens @ once is too much if either gets active. And if one paniques it will set the other one Off. You know how they re-inforce any alarms when in a Flock. Don't let them panik YOU.

well i did both girls, first one and then the other and i put them in separate cages, side by side, they are doing quite well, they were both troopers not a beep out of either of them while soaking or applying the bandages....

im new to the chicken world....only have had chickens for 1 1/2 yrs.....ive sure been tested to the fullest...these little buffs started their first few weeks on corid...they had bloody stools...went on to have a barred rock break its leg and i nursed her back to a full recovery, then had a white plymouth rock get a tumor on her butt.....had a little silkie with a cross beak that i have been nursing for months now....and now my buffs have bumblefoot, have no clue how to do that surgery....think im about to call it quits, i love my girls, my husband wanted some silkie chickens, we started out with 2 , one got eaten by a raccoon and the other turned out to be a roos, so we go some more silkies and 2 frizzles, one was a hen the other a roos, all my silkies turned out to be roos, which now left me with 4 silkie roos and a frizzle roos...my county doesnt allow roos and i am having the worst time trying to rehome them.....needless to say im at the end of my rope...thanks for letting me vent

:hugsGolly, you have been tried by fire! Nobody will blame you if you call it quits... but that is a lifetime of experience you have acquired there. I'd sure hate to see it go to waste. Other newbies could benefit from it. Blessings to you.

There is a page on here, of a duck with bumbel foot that was tended to without surgery. Try it?

Hopefully the kernel..as it’s called..once soaked, will be soft enough that when you apply pressure and maybe a small instrument, it wil pop out..then the keep is to put plenty of disinfectant..we have tried a few methods with ducks..blue kite first..once dry then Neosporin...or Chlorhexidine..and I like to use Vetericyn to help dry it up later..but then put a 2x2 pad on it..vet wrap is best..but if not use some sort of medical wrap..between the toes..a...not too tightly...redo this daily...my last duck was healed in less than a week..good luck
