I found a black scab on each foot about two weeks ago but unfortunately, I was leaving for vacation and couldn't treat her until I got back on Sunday. It looked like it got better but I still soaked and wrapped her. When I checked her yesterday, she seemed fine but I noticed some dried blood around the wrappings so I took it off. Her feet still looked pretty normal, just some dried blood and cracks. Come this morning, and the poor thing is limping and picking at the scab. It looks pretty bad and swollen. I think she might even still have mites but I'll have to check her again. Which just means I can't bring her inside, unfortunately. The flock had mites, lice and scaly leg mites and I treated them with Ivermectin 2x two weeks apart. Not sure if I should do a third round if I find mites again, but it certainly makes this trickier.
I do have some amoxicillin on hand and was wondering if it's time to give her some of that with aspirin, along with the regular foot soaks (no Epsom salt because it might sting), Vetericyn, maybe PRID? I also bought Silvex which says it's for staph infection. I also got an exacto knife because I think I might need to draw it out with a more invasive method, unfortunately.
