Of course.
Yes, i have had to. I have used them many times to cut open some nasty cases of bumble foot to dig out the core.

Bear with me. I’m new.

Do you use any pain medication when using the scalpels?

No worries.

No, i do not. You would be surprised to find that they actually don’t react all that much. At least for what i treated.
Of course, definitely not saying they don’t feel the pain, because they do. I try and get it done fairly quick.

That’s incredible. Chickens are pretty amazing. I’ve had my dermatologist slice me up with a local and I’m huge baby. Chickens got me beat big time!
