I think it's fantastic! Just keep watch on the remaining spots that need to heal and spray like you plan to (as needed). IF things start to look bad, you can always pull her back out for a couple of days. Love the photos, they look lovely.

Yes, just keep it cleaned as needed and apply your ointment. It should heal from the inside out, so you may see a little oozing. A puncture wound will take time to heal, but if you detect no odors that's a very good sign.

Nice setup! I agree, I think they have enough cover in there to feel secure when they go back out. It's easy to miss wounds with all the feathers. Sounds like all are making good progress and healing up just fine. You're doing a very good job.

They look good! They will eventually enjoy being back outside. Chickens love fresh air/sunshine and dirt. I also like the idea that @Onyxflock came up with by providing them some type of table fort when they go back out, at least temporarily until they become more comfortable. I've had...

@WhoDatChick how are these Ladies doing?

I would just use the ointment to keep the wounds moist, but if you wish, you could alternate between the spray and ointment. Good idea about the food. That gets them up and moving a little too. They look pretty content and cozy under there, you may have to make them an apartment:D

Fantastic! Looks good to me and they can see one another. They also may feel more secure in their Table Fort too!

Poor sweet girls! To me the wounds look o.k. and to be healing. Just keep tending to them like you are. It's going to take time, but they should heal up o.k. barring infection. Monitor for bad odors, angry red tissue and swelling. If they are eating/drinking o.k., then that's a bonus...

You're right, if they be near and see one another, they do much better. Is there a way that you can let them together to interact and eat together? Very often folks that have sick or injured chickens take them outside for playtime, just to enjoy some fresh air and sunshine, see one another...

Could still be in shock. I'd work on hydration. Electrolytes (Sav A Chick, Regular Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.) or you can give sugar water (1tsp sugar to 1cup water) to help boost them. Often they go off food when injured, but do your best to encourage them to eat their normal feed. You can...

I'm sorry for your losses. Can you post photos of the wounds? If possible, try to get some Chlorhexidine (Hibiclens) to clean the wounds really well. Trim feathers away from the wounds so they are easier to see and will stay cleaner. Apply triple antibiotic ointment to the wounds. If any...
