Hi there,

I have three hens who we treated for Bumblefoot a while back. Their scabs are almost fully healed and falling off, but just not quite there yet. My husband will be going out of town for 10 days and I don’t think I can change the bandages myself. Any advice?

For context:

They have been in bandages for probably about two months as they heal so there feet may be pretty soft and sensitive. We have been putting ointment on the scabs to prevent infection. The scabs are soooo close to completely falling off. We’ve been changing the bandages about every 2-4 days. They sort of free range (outside in a penned in area). It’s supposed to rain next week when my husband is gone.

Any advice on what to do so they are okay during this time would be so appreciated! Thank you!
