Can I treat my ducks bad bumblefoot with sulfamethoxazole? If so how much is the dosage for my adult jumbo Pekin, I think she's a jumbo.

I never heard of that "drug," so looked it up and found this making it sound like it treats coccidiosis in poultry. https://www.poultrydvm.com/drugs/sulfadimethoxine

If it's not open yet, I'd use something drawing like Prid and wrap it, repeating a couple times a day for a few days and see if the core is coming out. If it's open and the core is out, I'd use Veterizyn or triple anti-biotic cream (without painkiller).
