Ok, just a heads up this is the second time I've posted this thread because i haven't gotten any replies on the first and i am really worried.
Ok so my favorite hen, Rosie, had bumblefoot which i treated with surgery. It went well and i removed all of the kernel i could see, and bandaged her up. I changed the bandage every other day and applied triple antibiotic ointment without pain medication every time i changed the bandage. Well i recently I've started worrying about the bumblefoot coming back, here is a picture of the scab that has formed, does it look healthy? I sent it to another woman who says it looks alright and her foot hasn't swollen at all since the surgery, she's not limping and is eating and drinking normal, scratching when i let them freerange being a chicken. Here is a picture of her foot now, the scab feels hard on the surface but i can feel soft flesh beneath
