My 5 year old hen Shima recently came down with double bumble foot. Not a problem, I soaked her twice a day for 15 minutes in epsom salt for a few days, removed the infection/scab from one foot, waited a day, removed the next, and then applied vetericyn and neosporin. I thought she'd be fine, but recently im thinking she has a bacterial infection. Her comb is dark and flopped over, the ends are purple (which were like that before she got bumble foot) she's losing weight, isn't eating, drinking okay, and her droppings are stringy, green and overall bad. I'd like to know what antibiotics/supplements I should give her to get her through this. Any suggestions/advice is very very appreciated!
