Good to know
When I soaked my hens feet, I had them in a container like this but I just put a towel over top, they don’t know they can get out, and they stayed pretty calm.. I went this route because I tired with a hole in the lid and they were freaking out just like yours.
my name is not George,thank you for taking time out to explane what you are doing, I am fixing to take this bumblefoot head on ,I have 13 hens and 1 old old rooster.he is 6 years old, he's a big Rhode Island red, got to love your rooster,hearing him crow in the morning makes my day.i have been watching alot of video's,so again thank you for your time.
Could you let us know the timeframe in which Lucky started regaining feeling in his legs, or when he was able to bear weight on them, standing to walking?
Appreciate this video. Our little pomeranian has been down for about 4 months now, and we are trying not to give up on her. She hasnt been clinically dx with a spinal stroke, but at this time, it's the only thing we can think of. We tried a CT scan, and it showed nothing. She could not do an MRI. We were at the point of having to put her down because we were at a loss. However, we have decided to keep going strong and even try acupuncture. We will definitely try to exercise legs more and pray we haven't lost too much muscle!
your chooks wont feel bad eating the vole babies.
your more afraid than the chook you poor dear. good on you for doing this and recording
Sweetie looks like a rooster. Good job on removing the infection
lol WHAT 😂😂😂 you need your eyes checked if you think that looks like a roo
Thank you.
How much Epsom salt did you add to the water?
I'm growing Cherokee Purple Tomato Plants at the moment but no fruit yet.. Thank you for sharing 😁🙏
😃🎉 Excellent I subscribed to your channel 🙏
This just happened to my miniature schnauzer last night and we were freaking the fuck out. I really hope that he'll be his spunky, playful self again in no time.
Hiw hard did you squeeze to get it out
Your last year of growing was so sad to watch😢😂
I wish I would have checked my chicken's feet more often. I have a chicken with a really bad bubble. I did not notice until it started limping. So far we've been soaking for almost a week. The bumble has attached itself to the skin of the foot. Trying to remove it it started to bleed. I am soaking it longer to make it easier. Excellent job by the way!❤
Yo, I got a chicken with a bit of a swollen foot. IDK if it's bumblefoot because there is no scab or wound on her foot.
Video the sneezes 😂
This is a watering issue, not sun issue. That bed looks bone dry, raised beds need more water and a layer of mulch for water retention. Tomatoes LOVE sun but also need sufficient water. If you showed your tomatoes having sunscald, then I’d agree with you. But judging solely on this video, I don’t see that.
You aren’t wrong! It’s both! Due to the amount of sun exposure this bed need 2x a day watering and as you pointed out - I hadn’t gotten to the second yet. These plants couldn’t get enough water to get ahead
raised beds dry out like pots - extra fast.
need to have them ground level and with mulch.
Like your video! Good for Floridian gardeners!
Sarah, you are an angel! "My girl" had a stroke a couple of days ago and it crushed me. I thought I lost her. You have given not only hope, but more importantly CONFIDENCE! Thank you!
I wanted to say thank you so much for this video. My 11 year old collie had a stroke two days ago and it’s been really hard to stay positive it’s was so bad at first they weren’t sure if it was a in the brain or spine and he was close to completely paralysed. Now they are more sure it has to do with his spine and we are doing more tests. He is such an active boy and it’s been heartbreaking to watch him get so frustrated and despondent because he can’t stand on his own. I’m really hoping that he can recover most (hopefully all) of his mobility.
Thank you so much for the video, my dog just had this 2 days ago and has affected all 4 legs like yours. It is encouraging to know they can recover from this and that there is hope. It is so scary.
I’m a professional gardener and I agree!!! I have mine automatically to start watering at 1am
I usually water my garden 5 am so by 7am dawn they’ll have plenty of time to hydrate lol
Hello❤big likee👍
Hi from south Texas zone 9b! I'm dreading the farewell of our nice spring weather 😅 I'm more prepared for the summer than last year though! Got shade cloth and drip irrigation. Sun mapping is definitely important too
what do you think for prevention to soak there feet once a momth ?
Big likeee❤👍
Thank you!
What kind of ontiment did you use
An antibiotic ointment like neosporin but without the pain relief aspect. Do not use the kind with pain relief
I have several chickens with bumble foot I need to treat them
I’ve pruned mine then stuck the suckers in the dirt for more tomato plants and lots more tomatoes
Tomatoes hate this trick
Yes!!! I call them my bonus round 😂
i love it❤🫶😅🫥🤐🌸💮🪩
Thank you!
Amen sister. Me too. Getting ready to build new outdoor steps to my garden. 2 yrs ago ,I got a dual chop saw wrapped in mink(fake) for Xmas. Keep cutting!❤
me too!!!
Oof, was not expecting to get called out like this
We follow the plan. Dimensions are to the outside face of stud. It’s not rocket science. If using 2x4s cut two sets of plates 3’-0” and two sets of plates 5’-5”.
Whoever said "bottom and top plates" to you, should be able to answer your question
You did a great job. Your poor hands are shaking. I can empathize nervousness. Glad your beautiful hen is alright.
Thank you!
I'm getting ready to do the same thing
“I’m not sweet enough to melt”. I have never heard that and it made me laugh out loud. Keep up the good work! Cheers
Thank you 💚

If you would like to address this issue, I am here to assist you in growing your channel and resolving this problem. I eagerly await your valuable response. Have a nice day. Regards!
Thank you for sharing info could you list what you need to treat this? This would be helpful too ! And you did great ,so no need to be nervous
hard pass. ain't no way. and it's a good way to get gout.
Frozen and raw cut up into small pieces
Also helps to eat it while naked
Or fried
Liver Rice gravy and onions
First of all, don’t start with the liver. Get liver capsules. If you’re so depleted that you’re still craving the benefits after the bottle is gone…. Then try cooking with it. (Because you CAN get toxicity from too much iron, copper, etc in liver.) Before you cook liver, soak it in milk, buttermilk, or vinegar/lemon water. Something, soak it in something. Then, make burgers. Or hamburger helper. Or something with more variety than just a hunk of meat in the spotlight. Some people enjoy pate. If you need to save the meatloaf you already have, try a meatloaf sandwich. Toast the bread. You could always find an old school chicken joint and get fried livers. They give with a dipping sauce. 😅 If you don’t know where to go, ask a bunch of red necks where’s the best chicken gizzards. They’ll have livers too.
