Help bumblefoot getting worse

Soaking right now in some epson salt. She has her “hospital room” ready. The food hangs on the door.

Peroxide is giving her a lot of pain. She keeps falling asleep

Lace is sleeping now. It seem like it hurts a lot. I am going to try to get her some pain meds.

She is laying down now for a good nap

Poor lady! Next time should be a lot more comfortable using the epsom salt soak and then Vetricyn. Such a frustrating problem. Hopefully some aspirin will help- otherwise you can ask around to see if anyone has some meloxicam, it's a common thing prescribed to dogs and cats and chickens. If someone has it, make sure you know how much each pill has, i.e. 5mg, 10mg, 15mg and so forth.

She is very happy now. Getting 10 min of grass time then back to the clean coop. She got out of her coop some how (don’t clip it during the day just lightly latch it) and was perched on the door happily. Should I give her a perch? I was worried with her foot.

also a picture of her scabs

She seems to love standing on her water container. The plastic always caused her to fall of but the wood put on makes it better. She is sleeping good.

Excellent- yes, I would provide a perch- maybe just make it something you can change out easily in case it gets dirty. Perching is a great sign!

My teacher is going to look at how her foot is doing Friday. She is out with the chicks and the layer flock.
