Hi, I posted this somewhere in here following another post but now Ican’t find it so I’m posting a new one. I had an answer from one person but I don’t know if she wrapped the vet wrap around the whole chicken or how everything was kept in place. My girl keeps getting her foot under the wrap and pulling it off. She only has the use of one leg and she can do a lot with that ONE! I was looking for help on what to put on her open sore and wondered if I can put poultry wound spray on her or hydrogen peroxide. I live in a smaller city in Canada and we don’t get hardly anything here for chicken supplies. The pet store even stopped carrying Veterycin. So if anybody has any ideas on the way to go with this, please let me know.? And, there’s another one very close to the original to the right and I don’t want that to open too as then it will be real trouble. She moves around a lot on her belly so that’s what I figured happened. She’s lived in the spare room all her life on towels so she’s definitely clean and dry.

Don't try to bandage your chicken. It's actually futile, as you've discovered. She's happier unbandaged, and since she doesn't live in the usual dirty dusty chicken environment, there really is no need. Just clean and treat daily, and bacteria will be kept under control.

Peroxide isn't a good wound treatment since it harms new tissue cells. Probably the best thing to put on her breast blisters is an antibiotic ointment such as Neosporin or similar, found at any pharmacy.
