Post Bumblefoot infection

[Rg01]

Could not find the Calendula so I went with silver gel for now, i was told it is also good for infection and swelling. Made up some golden milk and mixed about 1 Tbs, for all 4 hens, with some worms. I'll take another look for Calendula tomorrow but I hope this at least starts the healing process. Did another Epsom soak, applied the silver and wrapped the feet up again. Thank you for the help.

I can get calendula at my local health food store, do you have on near you? They should have it.

We do have a health food store nearby. But they did not have the oil, only had the 7% ointment.

I love herbal remedies. May I ask, what does Chanca Piedra do to help the healing process? I've never heard of it before.
