Hello.
One of my ducks has a bit of bumblefoot. I soaked her foot in Epsom salts and I was able to remove some of the scab/dark tissue. It bled a little bit but stopped. I then applied Vetrimycin and Neosporin and wrapped the foot. She is in my basement in a pen with her sister. I'm keeping her on dry wood shavings. What is my next step? Do I do another Epsom salt soak later today? Or would that burn since some of the bumble is open now? Do I just soak in water and then try to get off the rest of the scab area? This is my first time dealing with bumblefoot, so I'm just wanting to make sure I'm on the right track. Thanks for any information you can provide.
