Hello there , I have a hen that is one year old , she was doing fine until a week ago I found her just laying on the ground and wasn't moving , then when I tried to give her food she crawled spreading her wings to help her , I thought her legs are weak or something so I was giving her calcium sources and she was eating , drinking and even laying eggs , she laid more eggs than she was in her healthy condition , then I was searching what her condition might be and I read about bumblefoot , I looked at the bottom of her feet and they were both swollen and there's a black scrap on both of them , I read about the surgery and I did it !!! I removed the black scrap and cut around it waiting for puss to come out but nothing came out but blood !! I kept squeezing but with no puss or any other unordinary thing came out , so I stopped the blood and put sterilized bandages around both feet and kept her warm and fed her , and I noticed that she only pooped one time that day , and she's not drinking , I had to force her to drink by giving her water in a syringe , this morning there were no improvements , she was the same and laying on her side and her both legs in front of her , I took her to change the bandages but one foot was pouring blood like crazy , I tried pressing for a long time but nothing has happened and I thought this is the end I applied coffee on the wound and the bleeding stopped so I bandaged it again , I put antibiotic in her water and gave it to her , she's very lethargic now and she won't eat even her favorite treats , her beak is always opened , her comb and wattles are pale , they were red in the morning , she ate a lot today but she hasn't pooped at all , only once this morning, she laid an egg yesterday but nothing today , the surgery was last night , she's now laying on her side and she seems like she can't open her eyes , she just opens them for a few seconds to look at me and then close them again , I really don't know what to do or how can I save her , please help me I'm so worried .
