Chirping
I’ve been treating my hen for bumblefoot for about 6 weeks. The black patch went away a few weeks ago and there hasn’t been anything but blood in the wound for even longer. The problem is, the area is still quite swollen. It feels like normal healthy skin and maybe a bit of scar tissue on the side but it’s at least 2x as big as the other foot in that area. She’s really getting stressed by all the handling so I’d rather leave her be if I can. Should I still be wrapping the foot? Is there anything else I should do to make sure it doesn’t come back or is it better to leave it be and just keep checking in on it?
This is my first case of bumblefoot and my favorite hen! Just want to be doing everything I can to make her better.
