So, we have a chicken with bumblefoot on both feet. I thought doing it one at a time might be helpful. Well we did it first.time but I didn't get it all, we returned her.to.the coop, it rained and rained and I was worried of it getting wet. We got.grr back in and opened and tried to cut more, I may have cut more foot, I bandaged it and kept her inside and three days later today, I opened it up as she deemed lethargic. It looks more swollen so I cleaned it and bandaged it again. She is limping and not favoring that foot. I am so scared. I am wondering if I should give her amoxicillin? And for the second foot, i ordered PRID so I will do that. But.help me my fellow chicken tenders. This is the same chicken with prolapse vent and salpingitis so I know she is a trooper.
 
Here are the pics as requested.

This looks worse than it was with bumblefoot. I cleaned up a bit and took off the black stuff but I couldn't keep her in pain so I bandaged and then notices the leg was getting oozy stuff too and the scales were falling off. So, I started her on amoxicillin 250 and meloxicam.
I don't want her to lose her foot etc, what else can I do?
