Epsom salt bath

[Oh cluck]

What temperature should the water be for an Epsom bath? I've got an egg bound hen. Thank you.

I dont know if there is an exact recommended temperature. But i currently have a hen with frostbitten feet, that is getting daily epsom salt soaks. The water should feel pleasantly warm to your skin, simililar to bathing a human baby. Not too hot and not too cold. If your hen seems content and finds her bath soothing and relaxing, the water temperature is just right. If there IS an exact recommended temperature, hopefully someone else will chime in. Good luck with your hen.
