Pekin with bumble foot

So I took Angelina into the breezeway with Jem, and tried out the wight bucket and it didn't fit her very well so I am going to find something else. All I did was put warm water in it, I am going to wait till we get stuff to wrap her feet in before I start putting Epsom salt in the water. And I can get her used to the bucket and being in the breezeway while I wait till we can get the stuff we need. That way when I do the Epsom salt soaks she will not freak out to much and will also not try drinking out of the bucket with epsom salts in it. When I soak her feet in the Epsom salts I will make sure to bring a clean water container for her to drink from.
Quick question is there any specific kinds of bandaging that I should use too wrap her feet with?
Here are the pictures of them in the breezeway.View attachment 3022619View attachment 3022626
Is this poop normal Angelina is the one that dropped it, I see the ducks have poops like this every now and again. They all act normal.

Looks like urates to me 😊
 
@AngelinaThePekin8 how is your Pekin hen with bumblefoot doing?
She's really happy, she stomps in the mud when I turn the hose on.
I make sure she swims at least once a day in clean water.
She lays eggs every day and her eggs are bigger then the other ducks eggs, everyone seems to have healthy shells.

She has a very healthy appetite and she for ages with everyone else she walks a lot throughout the day.

I am still very unsure of what I need to do exactly for treating her bumble foot, as well as I have had issues with three different chickens over the last three months, so I haven't really had the time to treat Angelina.
 
So I couldn't get photos of the bottom of her feet, but hopefully these will do for now.

This is her right foot.
The middle toe got pretty swollen one time and it made her limp pretty bad too,she walks okay now though.

I took pictures of all of my ducks feet.
 
These are Angels feet.
Angel is an 8 maybe 9 year old (I don't really know the exact number) pekin duck.
She had bumble foot in the past and I tried treating it but never did much. Shes had a hard time walking for about 4 years or more now, I think some or most of her issue is from niacin deficiency, I switched all my birds to all flock fourish months ago and she has been doing better.

I make sure Angel swims at least once a day if possible, there are times she doesn't get to swim.
But she has improvement with her swimming overall this month, she didn't have very good control of where she went in the water a few months ago but now she can stand up and flap her wings in the water a little better.
She even walks more and uses her wings a little less when walking.
