If it makes it over the mountain, you may get our storm too.
You keep laying those eggs ladies!
One of the problems I'm having is the pipe insulation tubing I've been using compresses too easily. At the end of the day it's badly deformed and it's apparent that pressure has been excerted on the scab again.Nothing drainable, all I got was hurt looks “why you stabbing my foot, mom?” and a little bleeding. Then there is also the chunky chicken pus nature,If it comes to the surface enough, I will do that, though it’s often less “draining” and more like scooping it out.
He was totally ok with the guaze pads and white medical tape I used the first time, believe it or not! He didn’t even try to take it off. Weather he was that much worse feeling and couldn’t be bothered, or he didn’t mind the color as much, I don’t know... It wasn’t really ideal because the adhesive irritated his skin and it was uncomfortable taking it off his scales, but I was out of vet wrap and the feed store was as well.
My Beetov-Hen, and Hen-Rietta, love you too Bob!
I think neoprene is an excellent choice. Good luck.One of the problems I'm having is the pipe insulation tubing I've been using compresses to easily. At the end of the day it's badly deformed and it's apparent that pressure has been excerted on the scab again.
It seems from what little experience I've had that there should be no pressure at any time in order for the core to start to push out.
The next problem is Cillins scab is in the same place as Roosties; close the the toe joint and facing slightly foreward. It's difficult to protect that area and leave some mobility in the toes.
I've dug out some neoprene. It doesn't undergo permentant deformation as easly as the pipe insulation.
I've made this up as a trial.
If this doesn't work I'm going to strap a plank with a hole in to his foot!
