[QUOTE="Miss Lydia, post: 25946574, member: 42327"] I would be soaking her foot or feet daily in warm Epsom salt water. I say both because I use a bucket and I it’s easier to put both feet in hold onto the duck and let them soak for as long as they will tolerate it. You don’t want her drinking the water it has a laxative effect. But it’s so good for inflammation and swelling. Then spray with Veterycin. I have a hen inside my house right now treating for bumble. I started outside with treating and wrapping but the wound was staying moist so I had to bring her inside where she wouldn’t have to be wrapped and the bumble is drying and healing. It’s going on 2 weeks of having her inside. So if you can keep her on clean bedding or pee pads and let the foot stay with out wrapping it may heal quicker. Some times you do have to go back in more than once when working on these bumbles. And it can take a while for the trauma of being opened and dug into to settle down. I did have my hen on a 5 day course of Baytril. [/QUOTE]
