There gash on the lower L backside. I did a debridement of that gash and it’s much better today still oozing grey/ back gunk . Poor...

    Yes. I thought so too. I am giving eggs, and vitamin supps. I applied hydrogel pad under the dressing. I think I am going to leave on until tmmrw am ( thoughts?) Then apply a new one.

    This is from this ams dressing change. Betadine splash, patted dry, dressing wet to dry. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get Nutri-Drentch and have to order but I did get her an electrolyte supp just to hold her over. She’s pretty perky given the events, was snacking on zucchini during this evenings...

    I love this. She is eating and drinking great so far. I did my best to check her out and she’s got a puncture under bottom. I cleansed that and I will keep and eye on it. Thank you for all your support and help!

    Essentially yes, it’s harsh because it contains bleach. We use in the hospital for wounds that cannot be closed to ensure they stay clean. However, because she’s a chicken, I figured dilute as much as possible to make sure it’s safe for her. I am changing her dressing in a little bit this am I...

    We use Dankins in the hospital all the time, for the chicken I diluted it to almost undetectable. It’s very expensive so it’s used less frequently( in hospitals setting), but I splashed with Betadine as well, and the Betadine is what I will continue to do daily wound changes with.

    Thank you so much for your response. We used a dankins solution to irrigate and clean the wound. We then did a wet to dry. She is inside with us, crated, with water, I will increase her protein intake and green veggies intake, I will get electrolyte replacement tmmrw to make sure she’s as strong...
