I have a goose who was attacked several days ago by a dog. She has wounds behind both her legs and on both wings. I brought her in and am keeping her in a rubbermaid box in the house, I have kept wounds clean and used neosporin on them. She is alert and seems happy in her 'pen' she stands and moves around in her pen but not trying to get out. I have been changing and disinfecting her bedding alot. She is eating and drinking and talking to us. her wounds are dry and look good - no signs of infection. I am worried though because she is having diarrhea now. Should I add anything else to her treatment? There are no vets around here who see birds. I have some keflex at home but nothing else. Can I put some in her water? Should I?
I have not let her bath yet. I am not sure it is ok.
I really don't have alot of experience here. My son found an egg on the ground while we were out walking and wanted to try to hatch it out. Against all odds we ended up with a goose. That was 2 years ago and she has been very healthy and happy - this is the first time I have had any concerns.
