Hello everybody! One of my quails recently got bumblefoot, I read that you have to soak the feet in Epsom salt water, squeeze the gunk out of the foot and bandage it. I have a couple of questions.
What does everybody use to do these prodectures?
I have Epsom salt with lavender and Epsom salt with eucalyptus and spearmint, will those work?
Is this Neosporin ok to use on quail (thinking about buying it) : https://www.amazon.com/Neosporin-Or...d=1690578278&sprefix=neosporin,aps,204&sr=8-6
What do you use to bandage the foot? I had vet wrap, but whenever I put it on my quails wounds they would always get it off. Will a band-aid do?
Can alcohol be used to sterilize the wound?

Thanks to anyone who replies!
 
Epsom salt with lavender will probably help to calm the quail a bit. To sterilize, I would use iodine or blucoat. I would probably use vet wrap? I don’t really know. I’ve just used bandages.
