My drakes foot is ALWAYS bleeding??!

Is it swollen to you it looks like it is to me which usually means there is something in there. So after you soak if there is a small scab try and work it off and see if you can get the bumble out. Then soak for another 5 mins and dry and apply triple and then wrap.

Or if you would rather wait till your boy friend gets back so he can hold then I don't think it would hurt to wait a few days as long as there isn't any heat or swelling moving up the leg.

If I must I could try but I'd prefer to wait until Ronnie is here to help me out he knows what to do. It'll just be Monday afternoon but that should be ok right for the one foot that needs work?

So but for today and tomorrow's treatment should I just continue and soak him AND bubbles feet both? And then apply triple antibiotic ointment and clean bandages? Or should I attempt to massage at least Aflacs feet? I'm thinking his may be healthy. It's ONE of bubbles feet I'm concerned about.

yes, soak, dry, ointment, bandage until Monday

Cause Aflacs scabs seem good and one of bubbles feet looks like Aflacs it looks like a black blood dried scab too. (the pic circled in black is the one I think is like Aflac's)
BUT the pic I circled in red seems like there's still stuff?

the image is kinda blurry, it almost looks like a blister to me

Yes, monday will be fine, especially since you are still doing the soaks and bandaging

On monday i would soak both birds then...
Aflac - massage both scabs and see if they come off easy and see whats underneath
Bubbles - the one reddish bump use your FINGERS and pinch it off. have you ever had a leach? pinch it off like that

No I've never had one. But Ronnie and I can pinch it and see what happens to that one foot on her. As for her other foot that looks good like Aflac do I massage that scab too? And what if their scabs when I massage them don't really wanna come off

And that's just for her one foot? As for the other three feet when I massage the scab after soak on Monday, what if it doesn't wanna come off easily

If it doesn't come off easily, then leave it for longer... you don't want to tear it off and have it back to raw, bloody tissue again...

Not like you aren't busy or anything, right?
And thanks for the input... I don't have a problem guiding the treatment, I was just unsure as to whether it was best course of action or if she should change treatment...

Sounds good! So just soak both bubbles and Aflac today and tomorrow and apply triple and bandages?? and then Monday when Ronnie is back we will soak them both again and then massage Aflacs scabs and the one on bubbles to see what happens and leave it if it won't come off easily and continue just soaking and bandages and ointment till it wants to start coming off? And then on bubbles one foot try and see what we can get out on Monday as well? So keep up the soaking and ointment and bandages as I have been doing?
