The hen is acting perfectly normal she jumps up to places and down , she pecks around it which worries me but I have covered it up
This is before and other is recent picture.
Hi everyone update on the hen I been cleaning the wound and used antiseptic and vaseline , then using vetericyn spray .
I cover it up lightly because she pecks around it, but I am starting to think it’s not healing well . I’m not sure if I’m correct , it doesn’t look right to me see below
UPDATE: Today I let the hen out she stayed close to the house and I kept an eye out . I cleaned her and used antiseptic cream and also Vetericyn as replacement for the purple spray, as it was recommended by one of you. I also covered the wound up using children clothing not tight just over the...
I gave her a egg she ate half of it and had her regular mix she also had lots of water which I put salt , sugar and baking soda in.
I continued cleaning her wound with Hibiscrub and then purple spray I will apply a layer of Vaseline when it’s dried maybe after a few hours. I added hot water...
I can apply Vaseline on her wound and wrap it up with a bandage if it’s okay? Unless it needs air?
Also I did give her scrambled egg which she’s eaten nicely , tried giving her wet cat food which she didn’t have a lot and isn’t really eating her regular mix
would it be okay to give her some
rooster booster in her food and Harkers coxoid in the water
To clean her can I use hibiscrub skin wash
Also lanacane anti chafing gel
Would this be okay or anything else I should use
What can I feed her during this day
She also can’t walk properly in one...
Hi to everyone reading this , I hope it finds you well. Unfortunately I had come home to my chicken being attacked by a fox , the left side of her body was bitten and her skin has completely come off. Under her wing I’m able to see the inside and it’s bleeding. She’s having difficulties...
Coco has unfortunately passed away 😭😭😭 he was my sweet boy with a fun personality. He stayed with me for 9 years and now is in chicken heaven. I’m scared to bury him as we get many many foxes at night in the garden , don’t want them to bury him up . Vets around me don’t even check chickens out ...
It doesn’t seem long left now for coco :( He’s not eating , his eyes are shut , not active at all. He’s become hard in his laying position , if I lift him up he seems like he’s already a dead cold body but breathing. He’s having water but slowly started to stop having that . I tried giving him...
