Advice: Silver Honey

[Pyriel127]

Hey BYCers, have any of you ever used this product on your chickens? Would you recommend it?

What are you wanting to use it on?

I've never used it, but it's probably o.k. to use on minor cuts/wounds.

For me, I use generic triple antibiotic ointment on cuts/wounds and injuries.

Half my chickens side skin was ripped off, about a 3” x 3” square, I’ve been using generic neosporin. And then wrapping her, some have said not to wrap but that seems a lot of surface area to be exposed, and not sure how to keep her from eating the neosporin

It won't hurt her if she eats it.

I don't think she'll eat it, it tastes nasty.

Do you have photos of the wound?

Generally you want to leave a wound unwrapped unless the bird is picking at it.

I doubt she'd eat the triple antibiotic ointment, she may taste it, but that would be it. A little taste shouldn't be harmful.
