Bumblefoot

[Aunt Angus]

SO went to the vet and she cleaned off the foot and soaked it with an antiseptic until the scab was soft. Then she took her nail and picked at the scab to get it off the foot. It did Not have a core to it! It was just tissue under it. So she’s put her on an oral med called SMZ-TMP 200mg (that’s what the label says). Dose is 0.4 ml 2x a day. It is a pill crushed up in molasses so it is tasty to give to her. Can’t eat the eggs until 1week after meds are done. Also soaking it in epsom salt and spraying twice a day with Vetericyn plus. It is not wrapped so it can drain. This is a chicken that does not like to be handled so both her and I are getting a workout.

Thanks for the update!
